Re: Cannot login to gnome after RH7 upgrade

["Dennis Lovelady" <love_d_e bellsouth net>]

Thank you, John, for your reply.

I'm afraid I don't understand, or this is more fouled up than I thought.

I have tried this with multiple users (even created a new user just for this
test), and all have the same results.  When I try to log in, I don't see a
place to click for login on the password screen.  So I held CTRL/SHIFT while
pressing ENTER on the password display.  No change (no dialog box appears).
I have three options (Default, Failsafe, Gnome) on the "Session" menu...
none of these seems to make a difference.  Any other suggestions?

Thanks,
