Thanks for this.
And if that doesn't work, which logically it should, I'll just install gnome-core. I'd rather not, this 'kitchen sink' install concept feels too much like a windows option, and not the traditional small apps connected by pipes.Could you please stop to blame the whole of Gnome for this bug in gdm?
I don't think I'm doing that.If I didn't have any appreciation for Gnome over KDE and even Open Office, I wouldn't persist. Gnumeric is at least the practical working equivalent of Excel, for example.
What I was commenting on was the list of dependencies for gnome-core, have you checked them out? A lot of them are unnecessary when they are obviously available in another form elsewhere, and arguably better. Report-bug in place of bug-buddy for example. I think that plenty of other examples could be found.
