Re: [gdm-list] gdm login screen flat !



I did that, no difference, the login screen is still a very flat/slim (1 pixel large) "dialog"

gdm-restart returns "Not supported",however I did a gdm-stop and it automatically restarted but with the same slim login dialogue: screenshot: http://www-public.it-sudparis.eu/~procacci/dok/doku.php?id=playground:playground <http://www-public.it-sudparis.eu/%7Eprocacci/dok/doku.php?id=playground:playground>
I also rebooted , did a yum update, no way .
we have hundred of stations in ou institute, and I 've already seen an other one having the exact same pb, I'am afraid it spread all stations very soon !? .

thanks for your help.

Try adding in the [daemon] section of custom.conf the line:

Greeter=/usr/libexec/gdmlogin

Then do a gdm-restart and see if you get the Plain Style login.  Maybe you can then at least login to find what is wrong?

Subject: [gdm-list] gdm login screen flat !


    I cannot log anymore because the gdm greeter gets so slim/flat in
appearance that it is nearly invisible :-(
Here is a screenshot:
http://www-public.it-sudparis.eu/~procacci/dok/doku.php?id=playground:playground

whatchout the very slim / flat "stick" aspect of the login screen,
completetly invisible ->  reg arrow to see it !

what could it be ? Where can I search for debuging that ?

I use gdm-2.30.2-1.fc13.i686 package on fedeora-13 system
I enabled debug, there are 3 files in gdm log dir

-rw-r--r--   1 root root 16335 20 oct.  15:30 :0.log
-rw-r--r--   1 root root 16516 20 oct.  15:30 :0-slave.log
-rw-r--r--   1 gdm  gdm   8277 20 oct.  15:30 :0-greeter.log

which is the best to look for ?
below is :0-greeter.log after I issued a gdm-stop (automatic restart next)

Thanks for any help , regards .
