Description of problem: Using F8 with NIS, gdmgreeter encounters an error due to a name that has an accented character. In this instance, it is the accented o of Gomez. When /var/log/messages is viewed using vim -b, there is a line: gdmgreeter[2582]: WARNING: string not in proper locale encoding: "Pablo Iranzo G<f3>mez" Later in the messages file there is: gdmgreeter[2582]: segfault at 74207372 eip 08058d2c esp bfd8d300 error 4 Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): gdm-2.20.5-1.fc8 Result is continous busy mouse pointer (rotating arrow). Workaround to problem is to only include specific userids via gdmsetup: Users tab (i.e. avoiding the name in question). Note that this machine was until recently upgraded to F8 and prior to that gdm worked fine under F7. I do not know if the problem is reproducible without NIS being involved.
Sounds a lot like bug 235351 (upstream http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=426647) We may have regressed since then
gdm-2.20.5-2.fc8 has been submitted as an update for Fedora 8

gdm-2.20.5-2.fc8 has been pushed to the Fedora 8 testing repository. If problems still persist, please make note of it in this bug report. If you want to test the update, you can install it with su -c 'yum --enablerepo=updates-testing update gdm'. You can provide feedback for this update here: http://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/F8/FEDORA-2008-5645
The update fixes the warning message about the name, however, I still get a segfault in gdmgreeter. Should I close this bug and open a separate bug? Is there some further information I can provide to help debug the problem?
gdm-2.20.5-3.fc8 has been submitted as an update for Fedora 8
Jeff, give 2.20.5-3.fc8 a whirl. It should fix your remaining problem.
Ray, thanks for the update. Good news/bad news. The good news is the 2.20.5-3 rpm allows the gdm greeter to come up successfully and I can login fine. The bad news is that the Pedro warning is issued again and the id it is attached to does not show up in the greeter. I am happy with this update, but you might want to look at why the warning is being issued again.
The warning is expected (I left in the warning, but don't crash now). It's probably not showing up because it stops after 5 seconds now to prevent the list from blocking login for too long.
Ok then. Feel free to close.
gdm-2.20.5-3.fc8 has been pushed to the Fedora 8 stable repository. If problems still persist, please make note of it in this bug report.
