    Status: Open => Needs information

actionparsnip requested for more information:
I get this:

andy@fileserver:~$ ps -ef | grep gdm

andy     31021  2772  0 18:08 pts/1    00:00:00 grep gdm

I use -ef as its the Linux standard, aux is the bsd standard but both
will work in Ubuntu.

If you kill both gdm processes then run:

sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start

is it better?

The last item is the grep running so can be ignored. If you boot the old
kernel is it ok?
