Bug Description

Binary package hint: ubuntu-gdm-themes

After updating to latest hardy-version 0.28 the gdmgreeter starts to hang.

Removing the line "GraphicalTheme=HumanList" from my gdm.conf-custom allowes me to log in, but setting HumanList again makes gdmgreeter to hang again.

I also confirm the same on two computers. When using Human List as the GDM login theme, the login screen never appears and the mouse keep waiting for the theme to show. All I have is a beige empty screen. Since this bug can cause people to lose access to their computer, I set status to High.

Changed in ubuntu-gdm-themes:
importance: Undecided → High
status: New → Confirmed

I had the same problem this morning.

cp /usr/share/themes/Human/gtk-2.0/gtkrc /usr/share/themes/Human/gtk-2.0/gtkrc.en

fixed the problem for me.
