Hi. I'm all for replacing GDM with a more basic display manager.
I'm using LXDM and it works just as well as GDM for me. But my desktop 
usage is basic so maybe you know about stuff that don't work with it?

In fact, a bit more than two weeks ago I wrote to Daniel Walsh to ask if 
gdm could be dropped as a dependency for xguest and he said it could.
I need to write to him again to remind him and to say that when he 
builds it then I can test it.
