Another workaround for this issue is to configure GDM to do automatic login (assuming that you always log in as the same user). I have had automatic login configured for the longest time, and I didn't even notice the problem. Put this in the [daemon] section of /etc/gdm/custom.conf to enable automatic login: AutomaticLoginEnable=true AutomaticLogin=username jik -- test mailing list test@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/test
