Comment 3 for bug 701481

I'm having this bug with gdm in oneiric (fresh install). It was working fine for me in natty.

To begin with the gdm greeter displays a list of users only by name without any user profile pictures. The user pictures appear if I click on a user and then cancel (instead of entering password).

I think this is an relevant bug. My 4yr old daughter can login by clicking a picture of herself. She can just about read her name now, but I'd rather have the profile pictures displayed. The lightdm theme does not provide this functionality, so I switched back to gdm only to find it now broken.

As an aside, if anyone knows how to get profile pictures in lightdm could they let me know? The first thing that comes up on google image search for lightdm themes looks much better (for my purposes) than the default theme but it doesn't seem to be available for install:
