Bug Description

Binary package hint: gdm

After upgrading to karmic, i am unable to switch GDM themes via gdmsetup, which is particularly annoying if you don't like the default one, which forices me to click my username out of a long list instead of just typing my name in.

I don't think we should release a version based on gnome without the function of switching gdm theme!

which gives me such a disappointment and wondering if ubuntu still evolves.
