-.TH tdm.options 5 "2003\-09\-18" "Debian Project"
-.SH NAME
-tdm.options \- configuration options for X display manager
-.SH DESCRIPTION
-.I /etc/kde3/tdm/tdm.options
-contains a set of flags that determine some of the behavior of the
-X display manager
-.BR tdm (1).
-.PP
-.I /etc/kde3/tdm/tdm.options
-may contain comments, which begin with a hash mark and end at the next
-newline, just like comments in shell scripts. The rest of the file
-consists of options which are expressed as words separated by hyphens, with
-only one option per line. If an option is present with the \(oqno\-\(cq
-prefix, or absent, it is disabled, otherwise it is considered enabled.
-.PP
-Available options are:
-.TP
-.B ignore\-nologin
-Normally, the contents of the /etc/nologin file will be displayed using
-.BR xmessage (1x)
-(if
-.B xmessage
-is available), and the user will be returned to the tdm login screen after
-the xmessage is dismissed. If this option is enabled, tdm starts a session
-as usual (after the xmessage is dismissed, if xmessage is available).
-.TP
-.B restart\-on\-upgrade
-Enable this option with caution on \(oqproduction\(cq machines; it causes
-the tdm daemon to be stopped and restarted on upgrade, even if the process
-has children (which means it is managing X sessions). Typically when a
-package that contains a daemon is being installed or upgraded, its
-maintainer scripts stop a running daemon process before installing the new
-binary, and restart it after the new binary is installed. Stopping tdm
-causes immediate termination of any sessions it manages; in some situations
-this could be an unwelcome surprise (for instance, for remote tdm users who
-had no idea the administrator was performing system maintenance). On the
-other hand, for machines that stay up for long periods of time, leaving the
-old daemon running can be a bad idea if the new version has, for instance,
-a fix for a security vulnerability (overwriting tdm's executable on the
-file system has no effect on the copy of tdm in memory). The tdm
-pre\-removal script checks to see if the tdm process has any children; if
-it does, it is possible that someone's session would be killed by stopping
-tdm, so a warning is issued and an opportunity to abort the upgrade of tdm
-is provided. If this option is disabled (the Debian default), tdm will be
-not be stopped or started during an install or upgrade; the administrator
-will have to do so by hand (with \(oq/etc/init.d/tdm restart\(cq, or by
-rebooting the system) before the newly installed tdm binary is used.
-.TP
-.B use\-sessreg
-If this option is enabled (the Debian default), the sessreg program will be
-invoked to register X sessions managed by tdm in the utmp and wtmp files.
-Otherwise, it is not, and the utmp and wtmp files will have no record of
-tdm sessions.
-.PP
-Users of older versions of the Debian system should note that the
-\(oqrun\-xconsole\(cq option has been removed. Shell scripts named
-.I /etc/kde3/tdm/Xsetup
-and
-.I /etc/kde3/tdm/Xreset
-can be edited to disable or modify the running of xconsole on the tdm
-greeter screen; see the
-.B tdm
-manual page for more information.
