Not only that, but more so - it doesnt even let me write the username in the firstplace, something that was possible in the earlier version. WAS : put in /etc/ttys, kill -1 1, typed username, hit enter, gdm stuck NOW : put in /etc/ttys, kill -1 1, cant type username because gdm stuck But it still works ok when run from the console. so the solution lies with the stdio, but just checking for their existance and not using some kind of workaround does help much. only makes it stuck earlier. The other problem, the graphical greeter not working, it still doent work, even when gdm is started from the console. how to reproduce : install the factory gdm.conf, start gdmsetup in X, choose graphical as the local greeter, try to run gdm. here is some debug info when i tried to run the graphical gdm, slave gdm-binary process backtrace is : #0 0x288a1eb8 in _thread_sys_poll () from /usr/lib/libc_r.so.4 #1 0x288a1271 in _thread_kern_sched_state_unlock () from /usr/lib/libc_r.so.4 #2 0x288a0b70 in _thread_kern_scheduler () from /usr/lib/libc_r.so.4 #3 0x0 in ??
