[Bug 860020] [NEW] GDM crashes if auto login is enabled (Oneiric)

 

Public bug reported:

Auto-login is enabled in /etc/gdm/custom.conf (enabled in System
Settings or on Live CD). GDM starts on boot, but crashes immediately and
the system drops to a console. There doesn't seem to be any useful
information in the log files.
