Never mind... I figured some of it out. I'm launching xdm from
/etc/rc.local, which means it assumes the login class of "daemon". I
raised the daemon class limits, rebooted, and the changes held.
My next question is: since xdm runs as root, it should be able to
raise hard resource limits for child processes, right? Do I still
need to tweak xdm so that my login class is recognized upon login?
Right now, it appears that everyone inherits daemon's resource limits.
