Ubuntu Karmic Koala
After a fresh install on some machines and update from Jaunty on another one,
we can't catch $USER $USERNAME $LOGNAME
from /etc/gdm/PostLogin/Default, we get "gdm" for all variables instead of real
login name. It was working since 7.04 version.
If in a terminal we run : echo $USER, we get the real login name.
** Affects: gdm (Ubuntu)
