Package: gdm
Version: 2.20.3-1
Severity: minor

On shutdown, DGM crashes with the following error (from /var/log/messages):

kernel: gdm[3200]: segfault at 0000000000000018 rip 00002ac96c6a8cb8 rsp 00007fff41539ba0 error 6

I am currently running 2.6.24, but the problem also occurs with Debians 2.6.22-3-amd64 kernel.
