Thank you.
This worked on my i686 Dell Inspiron 600m.
Is it then fair to assume that gdm is buggy? Both of my two other Fedora
machines use gdm (x64s). Since fedup worked (for the most part) on this
upgrade, should I be safe and flip to lightdm? Otherwise, I might have the
same problem - no login screen indicating a buggy gdm.
Thank you again.
