[Bug 41083] GDM sometimes dies when X server is zapped

[John Dong]

Public bug reported:

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


Description:
This has been a recurring problem since Warty. It seems to fix and unfix
itself from month to month in development.

Basically, if you zap the X server with CTRL+ALT+BKSP, often times GDM
will not spring back up a login screen. GDM is still running, and
killing it with HUP brings the login screen back.

This does not happen with any other display manager.
