The almighty .plan

Upgraded to Gnome 2.20, which stopped XDMCP logins from working.
It seems GDM 2.20 has a bug where it only works on IPv6 mapped
IPv4, not plain IPv4:

Downgrading to gdm-2.18.4_1 works at first and makes a connection,
but then GDM can't start some services and the client hangs on the
gdm background - probably because of the DATADIR change, and being
out of sync with all the other bits of GNOME...

   Yes, Minister explains British papers:

Jim Hacker: Don't tell me about the press. I know exactly who reads the
            papers: The Daily Mirror is read by people who think they run
            the country, The Guardian is read by people who think they ought
            to run the country, The Times is read by people who actually do
            run the country, The Daily Mail is read by the wives of the
            people who run the country, The Financial Times is read by people
            who own the country, The Morning Star is read by people who think
            the country ought to be run by another country and the
            Daily Telegraph is read by people who think it is.

Sir Humphrey: What about the people who read the Sun?

Bernard Wooley: Sun readers don't care who runs the country, as long as
                she's got big tits.
