  Description: GNOME Display Manager
   gdm provides the equivalent of a "login:" prompt for X displays- it
   pops up a login window and starts an X session.
   .
   It provides all the functionality of xdm, including XDMCP support for
   managing remote displays.
   .
   The greeting window is written using the GNOME libraries and hence
   looks like a GNOME application- even to the extent of supporting
   themes! By default, the greeter is run as an unprivileged user for
   security.



All the best,


David
