Hello all,

   I upgraded gdm today (my default login manager) and now it only
   gives me the following options:

   1. Previous session
   2. Failsafe GNOME
   3. Failsafe xterm

   Whereas, gdm used to read the contents of /etc/X11/gdm/Sessions -
   which had a session file for my wm, pwm. They are all still there.
   Any ideas why this is doing this? I've removed and reinstalled gdm
   but no joy there. I can't see how gdm is trying to read Sessions
   from another config file.

Regards,

Al.

Obvious questions - can it see it?

Did you backup your old gdm.conf? I had a problem today after I edited mine and had to change file permissions elsewhere.
