Bug#295300: gdm: Same error when entering sleep (echo "mem" > /sys/power/state)

[Jamie McClelland]

Package: gdm
Version: 2.18.2-1
Followup-For: Bug #295300


I'm getting the same error:

gdm_slave_xioerror_handler: Fatal X error - Restarting :0

When I put my system to sleep. It causes gdm to restart and causes the bash
script that puts the system to sleep to freeze, hence the computer does not go
to sleep, but presents a new gdm login.
