Re: [gdm-list] gdm no longer prompts for login

Benn:

Hmm...what version of GDM are you using.  You can run
gdmflexiserver --command="VERSION", and see if that works.  In the
latest GDM code, gdmflexiserver does not return that message.

Turn on debug in the GDM configuration file, and see what messages
get displayed to /var/log/messages (syslog).  Could you email me the
GDM related log messages?
