Bug Description

Binary package hint: gdm

Tested in Feisty after upgrading from Dapper -> Edgy -> Feisty.

Running Login Window from Adminisration brings up a gksudo password box and after the password is entered dies silently.

Attempted to run the target gksudo "gdmsetup" from terminal, with the same result execpt the terminal never returned a prompt forcing me to kill it.

I would rate the is bug as serious as it forces the user to find and edit /etc/X11/gdm/gdm.conf-custom to access the settings.
