Bug fix for Ubuntu login screen symptom
On day my Ubuntu login screen changed to to the ugly one with the daisy on it. Also the shutdown screen didn't have the shutdown option in it anymore. I had to choose logout, which led to the ugly login screen, which did have the logout choice under Options. I tried to fix it right off using gdmsetup but it wouldn't start. Follow that? A web search led to a number of reports of the same problem with no solution. Then I found this: [https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/gdm/+bug/66034] The fix is to move /etc/rc2.d/S13gdm to S21gdm ... works. [/items/Ubuntu] permanent link
