Bug Description

Binary package hint: gdm

On lucid, we have a local admin user as well as authentication setup to a kerberos server for our lab users. The local admin has no trouble logging in on console or through Gnome, but kerberos users can only login to a console. When a kerberos user attempts to login via the GUI, the authentication is accepted, but the login hangs with just a blank background and a (working) mouse pointer.
