What were you trying to do?
Connect to the libraries using the xlogin menu option.
What's wrong:
I'm disconnected after ten minutes.
What should have happened:
The timer should in some way detect X server idleness, and
reset itself whenever the user does something (moves the
mouse, presses a button, types a key) on the server. I'd even
settle for just detecting keypressed, since it's unlikely that
anyone would work for ten minutes without hitting a key. But
it should do *something* to check if people are working on the
machine.
