Hello, I have compiled GDM 2.28.2 using the instructions in the BLFS SVN version and everything appeared to go smoothly until I launch GDM.
When I do I get an xwindows session that just has a window in the middle of it with a computer icon, the hostname, and three buttons (suspend, restart, shut down). None of the buttons work and there are no username/password fields at all. There is also a gray bar across the bottom that has an accessibility icon, a power icon, and the date and time. I have a picture of it that I took with my cell phone because I wasn't sure how to take a screen shot of it. It's pretty crappy quality but it is clear enough to see what I am talking about. The picture can be found at http://code.sappsworld.com/0321001037.jpg I've tried re-compiling and verified that all the files the directions said were correctly modified/created. I'm kinda stumped with this one and hope someone can help. It's no rush though as I am still able to get in to X using the startx command.
