RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Comment 1 Ray Strode [halfline] 2010-12-13 17:18:04 UTC 
I've worked with ritz on this bug in detail. shouldn't be too hard to get working. devack+
Comment 2 Ray Strode [halfline] 2010-12-13 21:26:36 UTC 
After talking to Owen, it looks like we're going to try to push this out to 6.2
Comment 5 Ray Strode [halfline] 2011-06-28 13:19:14 UTC 
this has since landed upstream (in a slightly different from), pretty sure gdm is already on the approved components list, etc.

devack+

This request was evaluated by Red Hat Product Management for inclusion
in a Red Hat Enterprise Linux maintenance release. Product Management has 
requested further review of this request by Red Hat Engineering, for potential
inclusion in a Red Hat Enterprise Linux Update release for currently deployed 
products. This request is not yet committed for inclusion in an Update release.
Comment 9 Vitezslav Humpa 2011-08-26 14:09:34 UTC 
Looks like the fix is not working, at least for the 'echo "no go" > /etc/nologin' approach with gdm-2.30.4-31.el6.
Comment 10 Ray Strode [halfline] 2011-08-26 18:41:07 UTC 
indeed.  I recently changed my workflow for patchset generation and ended up getting the wrong final commit in the patchset, so it was missing one hunk.

didn't notice it locally because i was building locally with the correct patchset.

building now, gdm-2.30.4-32.el6
Comment 12 Vitezslav Humpa 2011-08-30 12:33:46 UTC 
It's all good now with gdm-2.30.4-32.el6
