Public bug reported: Binary package hint: gdm
When starting the gdmsetup through terminal with 'gdmsetup' or using System-->Administration-->Login Screen everything works fine.. the window appears and with clicking the 'Unlock'-Button it asks for the adminpassword. But when starting it in the terminal with 'sudo gdmsetup' the 'Unlock'-Button doesn't work anymore (the button gets grey and nothing happens). I found this in Ubuntu lucid (development branch) Release: 10.04 using gdm 2.29.92-0ubuntu1 Seems to be similar to https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gdm/+bug/440502 (but I am not sure whether it's really the same bug so I filled a new report.
