A similar bug has been reported to Debian already: http://www.mail-archive.com/debian-bugs-dist%40lists.debian.org/msg1076025.html > * When there are two users or more to choose, moving between users > gradually increases the width of the login dialog. > This one has been reported as well: http://www.mail-archive.com/debian-bugs-dist%40lists.debian.org/msg1074785.html > > I have to check if these have been reported upstream, but they may be the > reason why Debian defaults to "session-name='gdm-fallback'" for the greeter. > And, no, the reason why Debian uses "session-name='gdm-fallback'" by default is because "session-name='gdm-shell'" requires a compatible 3D graphics card (see section 5.4 in Debian Wheezy release notes) < http://www.debian.org/releases/wheezy/i386/release-notes/ch-information.en.html >. -- Luis Felipe López Acevedo http://sirgazil.bitbucket.org/
