Submit this as a bug report to the gdm developers at bugzilla.gnome.org Provide a patch that can be applied against the stock gdm tarball and I will test it. On 9 Mar 2007, at 07:02, petr.snyder@yahoo.co.uk wrote:
Hello,
Building gdm-2.16.5 always stops at line 544 of keymouselistener.c (at least if Fink's XDarwin (the xorg-version) is installed).
In function 'event_time': keymouselistener.c:544: error: 'XDeviceKeyEvent' undeclared (first use in this function)
Now I've found a fix for the gdm-port, necessary if Fink's xorg-X11 is installed. I've no idea whether this will be useful, if Apple's X11 is installed.
First I looked at keymouselistener.c itself. My little understanding of C tell me that X11's XInput.h will not be included, if HAVE_XINPUT isn't set. That will stop everything, if "XDeviceKeyEvent" is declared in XInput.h (it is).
40 #ifdef HAVE_XINPUT 41 #include <X11/extensions/XInput.h> 42 #endif
Now, HAVE_XINPUT isn't set, because the configure-skript fails to find XInput.h, though it's present in /usr/X11R6/include/X11/ extensions, while it's good at finding some other extensions (e.g. Xinerama). Strange ...
When testing X11-extensions (e.g. Xinerama, DMX), the configure- skripts temporarily expands the compiler-options, as shown here for the Xinerama-extension
31980 xinerama_save_cppflags="$CPPFLAGS" 31981 CPPFLAGS="$CPPFLAGS $X_CFLAGS"
X_CFLAGS is set to "-I/usr/X11R6/include", which is necessary if later on configure calls gcc, which then has to find "X11/ extensions/xinerama.h in order to successfully perform the test.
Before the Xinput.h-stuff is run, the CPPFLAGS are *not* modified, so gcc complains
(config.log:) configure:31838: gcc -c -g -O2 -Wall -Wmissing-prototypes conftest.c >&5 conftest.c:70:35: error: X11/extensions/XInput.h: No such file or directory
and HAVE_XINPUT isn't set.
I thought about editing the configure-script, according to the examples given by the Xinerama- or dmext.h-check etc., and stuffing everything into a new gdm.tar.bz2, replacing the original one in distfiles.
Right now I have just expanded the CPPFLAGS-environment-variable in the gdm-Portfile.
CPPFLAGS="-I${prefix}/include -L${prefix}/lib -I/usr/X11R6/include"
Gcc now always uses "-I/usr/X11R6/include", whether necessary or not, sometimes twice, makes the configure-script happy (it finds Xinput.h), and keymouselistener.c and the gdm-port is built correctly. I don't know if that's a good idea, but it works.
Best Regards, Peter

I have only tested building gdm with Apple's X11, not with the x.org server installed from fink.
gdm allows you to login multiple times as different users into the X server, although there a couple of manual steps required to do so.
