XMir hangs in xf86OpenConsole() WAS: Re: Fwd: [Bug 1256116] Re: Documentation instructs to install the package unity-system-compositor, but this is not sufficient for having Mir

+bregma to keep me honest

Hi Thomas -
I believe the  unity8-desktop-session-x11 is something that wasn't really
intended to be used in the end. Its just a unity8 running in an X window
and redundant to the ./run script that resides in the unity8 source package.

Good to hear the unity8-desktop-session-mir is working for you.
