Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gdm

Using Lucid Lynx beta. Fully updated.

I start Lucid, and come to the log in screen. 
I click my user name. The password entry box appears, but gdm appears to hang. 
The mouse stops moving, and no black circles appear in the password box. After 
about 5 seconds the screen blanks and gdm restarts with the "Click your name" 
box.

I am able to login to tty1. I tried setting Timed login, but that failed

There is a similar bug, but that was invalid  - #496772

Cut and paste from log files below.

$ grep gdm syslog
