Hi, this problem also happens to me, the only difference is that I
have an ATI Radeon Xpress 1150 integrated video card. After the
message appears I choose Not ("No") to try restarting the X in another
display and after that everything works fine (GDM + XGL + Beryl).

It always happens after every reboot.

I've noticed that if I use Xorg in DISPLAYMANAGER_XSERVER
(/etc/X11/xorg.conf) instead of Xgl the problem doesn't show up. But
then I could not use Beryl as I wish.

ken, this is the output for ps -fC gdm -C X:
-- Before funky window --
UID        PID  PPID  C STIME TTY          TIME CMD
root      3333     1  0 19:53 ?        00:00:00 /opt/gnome/sbin/gdm
root      3508  3333  0 19:54 ?        00:00:00 /opt/gnome/sbin/gdm

-- After funky window ("No" option) --
UID        PID  PPID  C STIME TTY          TIME CMD
root      3333     1  0 19:53 ?        00:00:00 /opt/gnome/sbin/gdm
root      4264  3333  0 19:55 ?        00:00:00 /opt/gnome/sbin/gdm
root      4266  4264  1 19:55 ?        00:00:01 /usr/bin/X :0 -audit 0
-br -auth /var/lib/gdm/:0.Xauth vt8

What should we do to avoid this noisy delay?

Tnx in advance,
