In TCOS I'm using ltspfs 0.2 cvs20060920 (i know that is an very old
version)


Investigating in lstp 5 sources I found that you save a mcookie
in /var/run/ltspfs_token and set in Xorg with:

xprop -root -f LTSPFS_TOKEN 8s -set LTSPFS_TOKEN
$(cat /var/run/ltspfs_token)

I have patched some scripts and TCOS works ok with new version of ltspfs
(0.5)

I fully agree.

I don't know when TCOS wiull enter in Debian but this could be a
important step to keep depends more simple.

Thanks.
