Hi. If I try to log in using gdm as a non-root user, it logs me in,
but does not even run gnome-session. If I run that by hand, it runs
some things, but if I want to change some settings I am informed that
the gnome-settings-daemon cannot start a new dbus session. Both dbus
and hald are started and working if I log in as root.
Here is my emerge --info
