I have an IRIX machine updated to the proto-8.3-alpha system packs.
When I try to log in as systest after a period of no one being logged
in, an X error flashes in the console window and then the X server
restarts, so I can't read it. If I try to log in again, it works
fine. If I log in as root after the failure and look for dangling
session stuff, I can't find any, so I don't know what state changes
between the two attempts.
I also don't get a warning about being unable to update the group
list, despite the same named problem existing. Not sure if these
things are related. I haven't seen the same problem with sipbtest
(which has a Hesiod grplist) yet, but I haven't necessarily tried
under the same conditions.
