Comment 3 for bug 395591

I have a similar problem with gdm_2.26.1-0ubuntu7_i386: I am not able to properly install it and it does not get started when I boot the development version of Ubuntu karmic.

You can find the output of "sudo apt-get install gdm" in the installation_by_cli.txt file.

When I also install xdm and kdm, I am asked what Window Manager should be default, but gdm is not in the list; probably because it has not been properly installed.
