We have been ignoring the fall releases for our desktop machines. It works in 
Jaunty.

I guess it is not critical, but it was a nice feature that we had gotten used 
to. I think the workaround is just to not restart gdm when the package gets 
updated or the configuration gets changed. I believe that it will bet restarted 
when someone logs in and out. 

This is really only a problem if there are security updates for gdm. We'll be 
able to deploy the new gdm, but we won't be able to restart it automatically 
because someone may be logged in.
