[Bug 40426] Configure Login Manager crashes X

[Zach Tibbitts]

Public bug reported:

Affects: gdm (Ubuntu)
       Severity: Normal
       Priority: (none set)
         Status: Unconfirmed


Description:
in the gdm login screen, one of the menu options is "configure login manager"
clicking on it prompts for a password, after which nothing happens
so, i set a root password with "sudo passwd" and entered that when it prompted me. this time, it began to work, but immediately crashed the X-server. future attempts produced the exact same result. this needs to either be fixed, or have the option removed, as IMO it isnt very neccesary, esp considering that it needs a root passwd to work
