Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gdm

>From today on I can't login to my laptop at least sort of:
When I start my laptop I get a window where I need to choose a host to connect 
to (including my host/ip) but it does not start it whatever option I try. It 
can scans the network alright as it detects the 'other' linux machine on the 
netword with xdmcp enabled but this machine is not yet restarted with the 
latest update/upgrade (and I will not restart it yet as I am afraid I will end 
up in the same situation as my laptop)

I also can start x applications from the laptop via ssh -x login.

(I saw there is a new linux kernel in use Linux 2.6.22-11-generic but
starting up with even x.x.x-10-x  does not solve my problem -even in
recovery mode- either ... )

Is this a xdmcp problem? in my gdm.conf it is disabled. Or something
else...?


My situation [gutsy / Linux 2.6.22-11-generic / dell latitude d620  gnome:  
using at for normal office work as webmaster]
