This has been mentioned in the list before and this does not work,
due to the nature of the problem. (The problem is not that xdmcp
does not work per se, but that it works but without a window manager
you cannot click into the login window so you cannot log in. This has
nothing to do with launchd support at all; it's a separate problem.)

Just my two cents.

Yahoo and Gmail must die. Yes, I use them, but they still must die.
