Bug#641087: gdm: gdm displaying problems

[Martin Dosch]

Package: gdm3
Version: 3.0.4-2
Severity: normal
File: gdm

Dear Maintainer,

when gdm starts after reboot and I hit return the field for entering my password is not displayed. But if I type the password and hit enter I get logged in into gnome. So it's just a displaying problem. If I switch to vt1 and back to the X-Server, the field for entering the password is displayed.
when I'm away from laptop for some time I have to enter my password again but then nothing is displayed. I only see a black screen. After switching to vt1 and back to x the dialogue for unlocking my laptop is displayed.
I'm using Debian Testing (was LMDE, but I removed Mint-Repos and programs) with Gnome3 from experimental/unstable.

Best wishes,
Martin
