Package: slim
Version: 1.3.1-8
Severity: important

I am using slim on a fresh Debian Squeeze install.  The install in question is
a Debian Live CD image created with the "standard-x11" package list and running
in persistent mode (this should make it equivalent to a standard Squeeze
install with just Xorg, no DE / WM installed).  I installed xfce4 package and
then installed the slim package.

I then do sudo init 1 followed by sudo init 5 to restart the X server (or,
alternatively, restart the computer).  Slim comes up and I am able to login
normally.  The first program I open runs.  Every program after that fails with
an MIT-MAGIC-COOKIE error.  "xhosts +" reports "cannot open display :0.0".

To avoid this and get a working X configuration, I disabled slim by running
"sudo insserv -r slim."  X runs fine after that without a display manager.

Have not tried other display managers so am not sure if this error occurs in
them as well.
