Well, tdm is configured as autologon. When the live

inside of Virtualbox without live image and is working perfectly fine) I
meanwile suspect a side effect of VirtualBox ... but what causes it?
I see it on the PC, on the VBox and in VMWare. the parent is started by root
and the child is running as the logged in user. To me it looks like the
parent process is started by root, so that it can run the child process as
the logged in user (like sshd or apache2 or any other application that
needs spawning child as a common user)
I couldn't find the place in the code where it does that (under 3min).
