Regardless of how the PDF reader debate plays out, there will be a particular PDF reader that Debathena prefers.

If it's not acroread, we should consider upgrading people's Firefox profile defaults when they use Debathena.

We should figure out a good way to do this - preferably one that doesn't break acroread under Athena, and also allows users to change the defaults back.

Something akin to a .generation file within the Firefox profile may be a good start here, but I'm not sure what the whole implementation would look like.

If I 'kdestroy;unlog' before running logout from a terminal window, the 'logout' command appears to not actually do anything.

jdreed says he has seen this behavior as well, but it may be intermittent, or dependent on something non-obvious.

The "Failsafe GNOME" session is currently advertised as a replacement for the Athena 9 "Ignore my customizations" login option, except it's mostly useless. It ignores ~/.xsession, so that's good. It also ignores /usr/athena/lib/init/However, it still runs .cshrc.mine and .environment (because we conditionalize that on $NOCALLS, which athena xdm used to set). So we need to change some things:

• In /usr/lib/init/{ba,c}shrc, we should set NOCALLS if $GDMSESSION=="GDM_Failsafe.GNOME"
• The "logout" alias currently depends on XSESSION being set. XSESSION will not be set in a failsafe session, so typing "logout" in a Terminal will get you "Not a login shell."
