Ghee: This regression was caused by my fix to the SMF integration used by GDM on 2008-11-21.
Halton: Thanks for he help looking into this. I do see that I am getting the "Couldn't find property group" error message when using OpenSolaris in the logfile: /var/svc/log/application-graphical-login-gdm:default.log. However, this was not causing any real serious failure on OpenSolaris since /bin/sh on OpenSolaris is smarter than on Nevada. I recommend using the attached patch instead of the one you proposed earlier. Your patch works around the shell script failing. However, this patch fixes the gdm.xml file so it properly defines the properties which are used in the svc-gdm file. This is really the root problem. I tested rebuilding GDM with this patch, rebooting and it works fine. I went ahead and committed the fix to spec-files.
