I have the same problem. We have a RedHat based infrastructure and my UID/GID is 518. To easily access files via NFS I changed my UID and GID from 1000 but now the greeter doesn't show the user name any more. Please make the limit configurable - preferably use login.defs. -- login screen is sho

I have been going around renumbering my user id's on my home machines, which all had "real" users' numbers starting from 600 due to switching from Mandriva back in the Dapper time frame. The old gdm used to respect the setting in /etc/gnome-system-tools/users/profiles . It would be nice if the new

This change prevents me from using the face browser for my uid 501 user account, and since you've hardcoded DEFAULT_MIN_UID=1000 in the binary program, any customization in /etc/login.defs is ignored. (I'll grant you that upstream shouldn't have hardcoded these values in the first place...) -- l

unix has tradition to have UIDs > 500 to be user accounts. debian changed that for whatever reason - probably because they thoguth they run out of uids soon. i have a uid 501 and now i dont see my main user account anymore. I have that uid for about 10 years and carry it around etc. what user did

I can reproduce this with karmic beta version and I am pretty sure that you can all reproduce that. I created users with 500 =< UID < 1000 and they all appear at login screen. This behaviour in itself doesn't bother me in fact as if you create a user and want to force its UID you may want him to
