[systemd-devel] systemd as a session manager

[Peeters Simon]

hey,

first of all, sorry if this doesn't belong on the devel-list, but i
couldn't find any other place to go with my question

I am using systemd since v11 as init, but now i would like to also use
systemd as a session manager (because gnome-session takes up more than
half of my boot time), but i couldn't find any information on it
except for some references to that functionality and a mail from
lennart saying that it works with (back then) only a minor problem
about cgroup permissions.

is there anybody who knows if this is currently working (with or
without minor problems), and could help me getting started with it? (i
have for now no clue about how it works)

thanks in advance
