Package: wdm
Version: 1.28-3.2
Severity: normal

Hi,

when I choose "Exit login" (in the list that also contains shutdown
etc. and has login as default), the screen turns into pink bricks, but I
don't get to a console. Also pressing Alt+F1 or Ctrl-Alt+F1 doesn't
help.  It also seems that blind typing doesn't work.

Of course, switching to a console first and running /etc/init.d/wdm stop
works. 

Regards, Frank

I still use it, and it works now.

I had configured it to not require authentication.  Whatever it was, the
problem is resolved now.
