Package: xdm
Version: 4.1.0-14
Severity: normal
Hi,
I just started to upgrade from 2.2r5 to testing (by pointing apt to
testing and installing new ghostscript).
After installation of gs, the new X including xdm, new libc etc. I
logged out. I got a simple xdm login screen (in a different layout
from the classical xdm screen I had before, but without the debian
logo). Neither my personal account nor root was permitted to log
in. I logged in via console and did a reboot, this time I got a xdm
login screen looking like the screen I got the first time, but
with debian logo and login worked fine.
I think login should be possible through xdm without reboot, or
the reboot should be offered by the installation process (M$
Windows-style, shudder...)
Thank you for your work!
Ciao
Michael Below

Closing since there are very few chances the bug is still present, and
we don't care about upgrade to woody anymore.
