Fresh install f13 - fully updated. As per usual on laptop - i ran gconftool-2 --direct --config-source xml:readwrite:/etc/gconf/gconf.xml.defaults --type bool --set /apps/gdm/simple-greeter/disable_user_list true So that gdm does not present user list to the world. Rebooted - gdm screen comes up - background is there - and lower bar is there. The box where I would put username / password is a thin vertical line 1 pixel wide ...it is impossible to login to gdm reset to false and restart and its fine again. known bug or is there a new way to configure gdm now ? thanks. gene/ -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines
