Package: gdm3
Version: 2.30.5-6
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable


After installing gnome I am unable to log in because gdm-session-worker hangs using 100% cpu.

1. Install Debian 6.0.0 kfreebsd-i386
2. Run `apt-get install gnome`
3. Reboot and attempt to log in

The log in hangs, and ktrace shows the following repeatedly for gdm-session-worker:-

CALL poll(0xbfbfe504,0x1,0xbae61111)
RET  poll -1 errno 22 Invalid argument
