Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gdm

Hello, here!

This bug might be Bug #396321 that has come back for lucid:

If gnome-session is not installed gdm on current lucid will lock
completely before asking for the password. The only way to recover is
killing gdm-simple-slave with signal 9, since after this crash it won't
react to sigterm any more.

If apparmor is installed gdm will segfault after asking for the
password, instead, and return to the login prompt.

The easy fix is making gdm depend on gnome-session. But this might re-
open Bug #400901, so this has decided by somebody who knows more of
these things.

Thanks in advance,

    Gunter.
