Description Andrew Haley 2007-05-14 13:32:58 UTC

Description of problem:

I upgraded to EL5 server.  The name of the machine is no longer displayed on the
graphical login screen, so I cannot tell which machine I'm logging into.  (I
share a single keyboard and display for several machines.)

This seems to be an EL5 regression.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

gdm-2.16.0-30.el5

How reproducible:

Always.
