Package: gdm
Version: 2.15.7-0ubuntu1
Severity: important

gdmXnestchooser after start only blinking with hourglass cursor and I 
cannot login there. In every blink I get one line in output.
When I use only gdmXnest I get only black window with Black X cursor.
I have enabled remote loging by gdm and it works fine.
