Description:
LXDM get unescapeably stucked when launching it on tmpfs mounted in /run

Maybe it's just unable to create /run/lxdm/ directory or something, i guess some initscript update can fix it... But i don't know...

Steps to reproduce:
1.) fstab:
tmpfs /run tmpfs defaults 0 0
2.) reboot
3.) rc.d start lxdm
This task depends upon

it's strange... i've completely deleted contents of /run on hardrive and it worked without problem, but with tmpfs it's still problem...

You should not have /run in your /etc/fstab. This partition is managed by initscripts, not the user.

falconindy: sounds bit strange and overengineered. anyway... tmpfs is already mounted there now, i believe it wasn't when i've tried...

No, it sounds like this is a system managed partition, much like /sys, /dev, /dev/shm, and /proc.
