I complained about this awhile back. I am trying this fix out now.
The GNOME Display Manager (GDM) 2.4.1.3-5
The GDM version 2.4 in RHL8.0 and RHL9 is a significant improvement over
the GDM version shipped in RHL7.x. The gdmsetup program provides a slick
GUI interface for configuring it. One behavioral change in RHL9, is that
previously in RHL8.0 GDM was configured not to restart even if the X
server was killed with CTL-ALT-BKSP. This caused issues with PAM and the
X server. One fix was to cycle to run level 3 and back to run level 5. I
ran into this a few times while I was teaching some Linux Systems
Administration classes. Now however, thanks to the
AlwaysRestartServer=true entry in the /etc/X11/gdm/gdm.conf file, this
is no longer needed.
