Previously processes started from the window manager would have a couple
of leaked file descriptors: writable /var/log/slim.log and readable
/gnu/store/…-xinitrc.
* gnu/services/xorg.scm (xinitrc)[builder]: Add 'close-all-fdes'. Use
it in 'exec-from-login-shell'.
That makes WindowMaker the default session, by default.
* gnu/services/xorg.scm (xsessions-directory)[builder]: Prepend a number
in the file name to preserve the order of SESSIONS.
(slim-service): Augment docstring.
* doc/guix.texi (X Window): Adjust accordingly.
* gnu/services/xorg.scm (<session-type>): New record type.
(%windowmaker-session-type, %ratpoison-session-type): New variables.
(%default-xsessions): Use them.
(xsessions-directory): Expect SESSIONS to be a list of <session-type>
and rewrite accordingly.
(slim-service): Adjust docstring.
* doc/guix.texi (X Window): Update accordingly.
Includes fixes for CVE-2014-8091, CVE-2014-8092, CVE-2014-8093, CVE-2014-8094,
CVE-2014-8095, CVE-2014-8096, CVE-2014-8097, CVE-2014-8098, CVE-2014-8099,
CVE-2014-8100, CVE-2014-8101, CVE-2014-8102, and CVE-2014-8103.
See <http://www.x.org/wiki/Development/Security/Advisory-2014-12-09/>
* gnu/packages/xorg.scm (xorg-server): Update to 1.16.2.901. Move mesa,
resourceproto, scrnsaverproto, and xf86driproto from inputs to
propagated-inputs. Add dri3proto and presentproto to propagated-inputs.
Add eudev and libxshmfence to inputs. Add a 'pre-configure' phase instead
of modifying the 'configure' phase. Adapt substitution that avoids trying
to 'mkdir /var' to build system changes.
* gnu/services/xorg.scm (xserver.conf): Add xf86-input-evdev ModulePath line.
* gnu/packages/xorg.scm (xf86-video-modesetting): Remove a comment stating
that the libdrm used in this driver is incompatible with the one in mesa,
because it is no longer true.
* gnu/services/xorg.scm (xserver.conf): Uncomment 'xf86-video-modesetting'
ModulePath and remove associated comment.
This is a followup to 1d18d87, which fixes <http://bugs.gnu.org/19119>.
* gnu/services/xorg.scm (xinitrc)[builder]: Add 'exec-from-login-shell'
procedure. Use it instead of 'execl' when launching XSESSION, WMAKER,
or RATPOISON.
Fixes <http://bugs.gnu.org/19119>.
