Private bug reported:
Binary package hint: gdm
I just upgraded my desktop from Intrepid to Jaunty, and on the first
reboot after upgrading, I get a black screen with a gtk dialog saying
"The greeter application appears to be crashing. Using a different
one."
If I press OK there it apparently tries to start again but then the
dialog comes back.
/var/log/daemon contains
