Dear Andreas, yes the screen does indeed turn off for a while while GDM is loading when I dont't exit plymouth.
Maybe should I purge GDM3 and try over again? I have no clue why GDM does only works so sluggish for me. As noted in my last mail, with XDM, KDM and lightdm I can't even start my xinitrc session, since they refuse to exec enlightenment_start. I really have no clue where this all comes from, this is why I am asking on the bugreport list. :-) To note, my installation is a Debian 5 installation, upgraded to Debian/testing and running on so far. I already reported other sometimes strange bugs happening for me, for example gkrellm seqfaulting when I type an umlaut; I use xmodmap by the way. Maybe you have an idea how to make GDM run smoothly again.
