Title:
  gdm-simple-greeter: Unable to find users: no seat-id found

Status in “gdm” package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: gdm

  Machine upgraded from 8.04. 4 user accounts (alan mary ryan brian);
  machine was configured with timed login to log alan in after 30
  seconds.

  Machine boots to gdm screen, shows gdm simple greeter screen with machine 
name.
  gdm log has this error message: Unable to find users: no seat-id found

  No users show up on the list. "Other..." option is unavailable.

  Unable to log in with this screen. Switching to virtual terminal
  (ctrl-alt-f1, etc.) allows us to log a user in in text mode; have not
  tested startx while logged in as a normal user. "startx" from recovery
  console (root login) works.

  `pkill -9 gdm` and restarting it with `sudo gdm &` has no effect.
