Package: gdm
Version: 2.16.1-1
Severity: normal
Subject: gdm: Black screen on daemon stop
Package: gdm
Version: 2.16.1-1
Severity: normal
Stopping gdm using /etc/init.d/gdm stop results in a black screen and
a generally unusable machine (I have been unable to get anything to
display on a terminal after stopping gdm). However, stopping gdm from
either the GNOME menu or from the GDM Options menu as part of a
shutdown or restart does not result in a black screen (the shutdown
messages display just fine). I'm not sure whether this is an X.org
bug or a GDM bug, but since it is being displayed as part of how gdm
is shutdown I am starting here.
As an up-front warning, I am using fglrx (version 8.28.8-4) which
seems to have its fair share of bugs... I'm happy to help debug this,
but I'm not particularly knowledgeable about GDM or X internals, so
I'm not sure where to start...
Thanks,
Kevin

Nope, it works like a charm. Thanks!
