The error message probably shows up > in the logs in /var/log or /var/log/(display manager) Returning to Mikkel's original comment: The Display Manager is Gnome. The Desktop Environment is KDE. (Thanks to Mikkel for clearing up the terminology.) If I change the Display Manager to KDE, by installing a file /etc/sysconfig/desktop containing DISPLAYMANAGER=KDE, the problem disappears completely. But unfortunately the KDE Display Manager doesn't work properly. There certainly seems to be a problem in /var/log/gdm/:0-greeter.log, which is attached. The greeter looks in 4 places for the file gdm-shell.session and doesn't find it in any of them. The file is, in fact at /usr/share/gnome-session/sessions/gdm-shell.session which is included in the rpm gdm-3.2.1.1-8.fc16.x86_64 This looks very plausible. What's broken? Why isn't the greeter looking for gdm-shell.session at the place where it is? At the end of /var/log/gdm/:0-greeter.log is a suspicious looking line: (gnome-shell:1570): GConf-WARNING **: Got Disconnected from DBus.

What you get after you log in is the desktop environment or window manager, depending on what you run. KDE and Gnome are examples of a desktop environment. I do not know about KDE, but you can run Gnome on top of a couple of different window managers.

Do you run KDE in the following way? In the Login GUI after you enter you user name but not yet you passwd there will be a slot in the lower left of the display that allows you to set the desktop environment to Gnome, KDE, XFCE, etc. To bring up KDE do you chose KDE and then enter you passwd.

Thanks to all for your attention, though it is a little strange to read speculations about what I want to do. I have been away from computers for a few days and have not been able to read email. I want to find out why the system is producing this unreadable message: A problem h[]dministrator. on a black screen at system startup ONLY and not when logging in again on a running system. I definitely don't want to run Gnome, since I don't like its user interface (personal preference). I have tried the kdm login system, and it doesn't seem to work properly: * It doesn't remember the last session run and always starts me (oddly) running Gnome unless I select KDE explicitly. * The Show List (of users) function which appears in System Settings->Login Screen->Users doesn't seem to do anything. No list appears on the login screen when it's activated. * KDE keeps forgetting my font settings when I reboot the system. (There may be something else going on here, but it certainly looks that way.) So I'm back to gdm. The suggestion that the system is missing some "thyme" files is interesting. What is "thyme"?

Actually that is the way to switch desktop environments, not display managers.

Strange message at startup
When Fedora puts up the first login screen after system startup, the screen is black except for the login area which shows the names of the users who might want to log in, and a message partly blocked by the login area which says: A problem h[]dministrator. The bar at the top of the screen showing the date at the center and three controls at the right is missing. There is (obviously) some problem that I should attend to, but it's not clear what it is.
