|---|
| 8 | support. |

|---|

|---|
| 23 | script via the same interface that the old GDM supported. |
|---|
| 24 | - Now the user's dmrc and face image files are stored in /var/cache/gdm, so |
|---|
| 25 | that the login process does not need to access the user's $HOME directory |
|---|
| 26 | before authentication. Refer to bug #565151. |
|---|
| 27 | - Fix the login GUI options widget so the language/session/layout choices are |
|---|
