I've performed regression tests and finally isolate the faulty package:
it's gnome-session-2.14.1-2. Reverting to FC5 original gnome-
session-2.14.0-1 solves the problem. I don't know if other versions
where built in the meantime, so I can't precisely determine whether the
log in problem only appears with the latest gnome-session version or
not. Does this issue only affect ia64 systems or other architectures
too? Should I file a bug report?
you have most probably found a regression bug... look if its already
filed... if not... file it.
