Add running of the configurator from the slave rather then the login which
Sun Apr 29 22:46:12 2001 George Lebl <jirka@5z.com>
* daemon/gdm.[ch], daemon/slave.c, gui/gdmlogin.c: Add running of
the configurator from the slave rather then the login which
doesn't work. There is a special session setup for this so that
the user gets prompted for the root password first.
* daemon/gdm.c, daemon/slave.c, gui/gdmlogin.c, daemon/server.c:
Only do the timed logins on the first local display just like
autologin. We don't want to do simultaneous logins of the same
user on different screens really, that's usually bad.
* daemon/gdm.c: Increase general paranoia and don't trust the greeter
and only allow reboots/config/halts when they are actually allowed
in the config file and only for local.
* gui/gdmconfig.glade, gui/gdmconfig.c: Add a bunch of tooltips,
and add the configuration stuff for the timed logins
