The facebrowser + is no longer insensitive when entering the password so you can + change the selected user without having to enter an invalid + password. Also added a cancel button which allows user to reselect + a different username without having to enter an invalid password. + Removed the stupid double-click requirement to select a user with + the face browser.

Also document + changes to the way GDM files are installed. Now all programs + intended to be run by root are in EXPANDED_SBINDIR + (gdm/gdm-binary/gdmsetup), all programs that are not intended to be + run by end-users are in EXPANDED_LIBEXEC + (gdmchooser/gdmgreeter/gdmlogin). Removed gdmconfig wrapper script + and gdmXnest symlink since they only server to clutter the + filesystem. + +Mon Feb 14 16:42:00 2005 Brian Cameron <Brian.Cameron@Sun.Com> + + * C/gdm.xml: Fixes bug #151018.
