Package: gdm
Version: 2.4.1.7-1
Severity: grave
Followup-For: Bug #240991

Hi

Also happened to me. No sessions were avaiable (just failsafe ones). I
tried everything. I changed every /etc/gdm/gdm.conf option that I could,
but nothing.
Then I just moved the old gdm.conf over the new one, restarted gdm and
nothing.

I downgraded to the old 2.4.1.7-1 to solve that.
