    hello. hopefully you can help me.

    i have just installed freebsd 5.1 and wanted, that gdm automatically
    starts after booting to login. i changed in /etc/ttys the following line:

    ttyv0 "/usr/X11R6/bin/gdm" gdm on secure

    gdm is starting with this, but i'm unable to login as a different user
    than root. even if i login with my default user woo and woo's password,
    gdm is starting gnome as root. any hints?

    greetinx
