[potato] gdm doesn't start windowmanager

[Nico De Ranter <nico@sonycom.com>]

Howdy,

I don't know whether this is the correct mailinglist to post
this but anyway...

I upgraded my Debian box to unstable and installed gdm. Unfortunately
when I try to login the screen flickers a few times and the gdm screen
pops back.  When I start X by typing startx from a text console 
everything works fine.  I noticed this problem on a few PC's that
have been upgraded to potato so I think it's a bug and not a misconfiguration.

I now potato is called "unstable" for something but I hope somebody has
a workaround or fix for this.

Thanks in advance,

Nico
