Hi,

Lots of bugs complain GDM user login is not a console user. You could
get a list from Brian's email:
http://www.opensolaris.org/jive/thread.jspa?threadID=114347&tstart=30

Gary and Brian come up a temporary solution - always assign /dev/console
for display :0 on VT. So far, we think it works for most cases. 

Obviously console user role lost again for following scenarios:
- User customize ConsoleKit to start other displays not on :0
- Second session when use User Switch Applet

NOTE: This fix is for new GDM(gdm-2.28.x), not for old GDM(gdm-2.20x).
We plan to switch to new GDM on build 128.

Thanks,
Halton.
