Package: gdm3
Version: 2.30.5-2
Severity: important
After the last upgrade of gdm, I can no longer log into the gnome session. Gdm is running. Because I require accessibility for access to my system, I don't know what is actually displayed on the gdm3 login screen.
I can provide any needed log file. Based on the contents of :0-greeter.log, I believe it contains the info needed to figure out this
problem. I'll try to include it in this report.
