Description Paolo Bonzini 2011-01-19 14:45:49 UTC 
abrt version: 1.1.14
architecture: x86_64
Attached file: backtrace
cmdline: /usr/libexec/gdm-simple-greeter
component: gdm
executable: /usr/libexec/gdm-simple-greeter
kernel: 2.6.37-2.fc15.x86_64
package: gdm-1:2.91.4-1.fc15
reason: Process /usr/libexec/gdm-simple-greeter was killed by signal 6 (SIGABRT)
release: Fedora release 15 (Rawhide)
time: 1295447217
uid: 42

How to reproduce
-----
gdm does not work on this installation.  As soon as I try to enter runlevel 5, gdm-simple-greeter keeps crashing.

Right after the Rawhide install, gdm came up correctly.  It started failing after I ran the following commands:

groupadd -g 501
useradd -u 501 -g 501 pbonzini

The /home/pbonzini directory was preexisting, since the /home partition is shared with other Linux installs on this machine.
