From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux x86_64; en-US; rv:1.7.12) Gecko/20050922 Fedora/1.0.7-1.1.fc4 Firefox/1.0.7 Description of problem: The "Happy Gnome w/ Browser" gdm theme with users in the include list (either a single user or "all users") causese gdm to crash when it is restarted. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 2.13.0.4-2 and 2.13.0.5-7 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install FC5-test2 with the default package selection 2. Log in to gnome as root (or as a user then su to root) and run gdmsetup 3. Change the gdm theme to "Happy Gnome w/ Browser" 4. Click on the "Users" tab and select "Include all users...", or manually enter the non-root user created during firstboot 5. Press "Close" to save and apply the changes 6. Logout Actual Results: The user is logged out and gdm fails to restart. After 6 failures the text console presents a warning dialog that "The display server has been shut down 6 times in the past 90 seconds. It is likely that something bad is going on. Waiting for 2 minutes before trying again on display :0" Expected Results: The new gdm theme with the face browser appears. Additional info: This happens in both FC5-test2 and FC5-test2 with the latest updates. I do not see this problem on my FC4 box. It doesn't appear to be an X problem because rhgb runs fine. This only seems to happen when I use both the Happy Gnome w/ Browser theme and a user list. If I use only one of the two then it works fine. The problem still appears even after a reboot. FWIW, I'm running this in a VMWare virtual machine.
This works on current rawhide, would you please test again?
