Package: gdm
Version: 2.18.4-1
Severity: important

When gdm starts it is appearently OK, then while typing in
username/password the font used is too big, and only the part which fits
inside the text-input box is displayed. 
Also the menus displayed by clicking on "Session", "Actions" or
"Language" are written with too big fonts and fill the screen, so menus
are unusable.

A quirk for LPL monitors with wrong EDID was added in the X server, so
this is now fixed.  Closing.
