Howdy,

amd64 desktop

Upon boot, Ubuntu hangs at at an X window,
a regular timer icon.

when I
ctrl-alt-f1
~$ tail -f /var/log/auth.log

I see it filling with

pam_nologin(gdm:auth): cannot determine username


Any suggestions as to config files to check, workarounds, or
kludges to get my desktop back would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Kent
