Comment 2 Michael Hideo 2007-08-02 04:41:24 UTC
directory structure in RHEL 5 GNOME has changed quite a bit from the version in
RHEL 4 - anything that refers to /etc/X11/gdm will be incorrect

Moving Status to 'Assigned'

Comment 5 Don Domingo 2008-01-21 00:38:43 UTC
i only see the changes in RHEL5.1 Install Guide onwards. should this be also
applied to RHEL5.0? please advise if so, so i can make the necessary changes and
push a new build.

setting to NEEDINFO=dmcnamar
