Hi,

I am having this weird problem.

on login via gdm on an up2dated rawhide syetem, i get a back screen
with just the corser visible. if I login to that system via ssh from a
diffrent PC on the network and look at the /var/log/message, I see

Jan 11 21:12:04 siempc gdm-simple-slave[3077]: DEBUG: Writing wtmp
session record to /var/log/wtmp
Jan 11 21:12:04 siempc gdm-simple-slave[3077]: DEBUG: Adding new utmp record

configuration source at position 3


if i hit Alt+Ctrl+Backspace, the server die and I get no signal on
the monitor. I can't even go to Alt+F1 . On the log file, I see:

Jan 11 21:53:24 siempc gdm-simple-slave[3077]: DEBUG: GdmServer: child
(pid:3079) done (status:0)


the only way i can get any signal is, to do:

telinit 3
telinit 5

most of the time this brings signal to the monitor.


any idea?
