That won't be easy because I had to to some hideous hacks to pam_pkcs11, 
openct and opensc to make it work with my Aladdin token!

I refused to use their crappy propriety software since 1) it is not true 
x86_64 and in order to use it I have to install over 30+ i686 additional 
packages; 2) it is not flexible and do not allow me to configure it as I 
want to; and 3) I do not know what is in their binaries (they do not 
distribute the source code!) and I am going to use this on a critical 
group of machines.

I assumed gdm 2.30-2 is the latest version, is there a new one (I 
checked rawhide and it was nothing there either)? The only other way I 
could think of is if I install a quick-and-dirty F14 system on a 
separate partition (only the basic stuff + gdm) and then transfer the 
pkcs12 libraries over and see how it goes, but would it be too much 
trouble to do a f13 update?
