1. Please use a meaningful subject line. Thanks.

2. Does this happen when logging in at a console (text-only screen), or
via a GUI-fied login screen. If the GUI screen, is it xdm, gdm, kdm, or
wdm (or other)?

3. Does it happen for all users, or just one user? (You may need to
create a new user to test with.)
