Package: gdm
Version: 2.14.5-1
Severity: normal

I use the 'GNOME' session as my default session. Sometimes I, for one reason
or another, use the xterm failsafe session. After exiting that session, if I
simply login again the xterm failsafe session will be the one to run, even
though gdm did not ask me to make it the default.

I have to explicitely select GNOME again, and gdm then tells me that xterm
failsafe session is the default, and asks me whether I want to make GNOME the
default, or simply start it.

This behavior is wrong; the default session should not be changed when using
the failsafe session.

Thanks,
