Re: gdm - Please, send me a default Xsession (Newbie in trouble) - Solved
Hi,
Finally I solved *all* the problems I had with gdm with:
apt-get --purge remove gdm
(it said it didn't remove /etc/dm/)
rm -rf /etc/dm/ (so that everything is removed)
apt-get install gdm
And now it works fine!
Cheers,
Sylvain.
