Unnecessary user login history is recorded by logging in to X-window

Solution Unverified - Updated -

Issue

  • When a user logs in to X-window, the user's login history is recorded unnecessarily. That's found by running last command. Example is as follows. 
   # last
     root     :0                            Mon Aug  8 14:29   still logged in
     root     :0                            Mon Aug  8 14:29 - 14:29  (00:00)
