I have a Wallstreet G3 Powerbook with a dead PRAM and my symptomps are the same as described in this bug.
Could this not be fixed by setting some kind of date redefinition in the init file for GDM that runs at startup. Something like, if date< 1970 then set date to something after 1970. Thereby us that have old laptops could still use them, without buying a new PRAM, that costs a bundle. -- gnome confused when date not set correctly https://launchpad.net/bugs/38845 -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
