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/
