gdm hangs.
All attempts at diagnosis or repair have failed.
I've done a
yum reinstall \*

Most recently I did an explicit uninstall of gdm and its dependents.
After installing them again I issued the following command:
[root@localhost] hennebry# telinit 5
[root@localhost] hennebry# Calling the system activity data collector (sadc):
Starting portreserve:                               [OK]
Enabling p4-clockmod driver (passive cooling only): [OK]
Starting irqbalance:                                [OK]
Retrigger failed udev events:                       [OK]
Enabling Bluetooth devices
user had insufficient privilege

After I got back from another virtual terminal,
the subsequent lines had appeared.
I do not have any bluetooth devices.


I really hate having to reinstall the system.
It's giving up, but I'm beaten.
What is worse, I do not even know whether the reinstall will work.
