Bug Description
Binary package hint: gdm
This probably isn't gdm, but I only saw it with the new gdm.
I had a full disk (too many kernels :P:).
The new GDM came up, and a warning about 'sanity-check-2'. I could then login, but couldn't select language, and there was a warning about the login window not supporting 'simple save settings'. I'm not 100% ure this was because of the full disk.
