did you try running gdmsetup manually? find out where it is and specify
the full path, as root:
/usr/sbin/gdmsetup

[gentoo-user] About Gnome desktop

[Stephen Liu]

Hi folks,

Gentoo_64
Gnome-light

Gnome desktop

On Desktop --> Administration --> there is only 1 item "Login Window"

clicking it starting;
Could not launch menu item
Details: Failed to execute child process "gdmsetup" (No such file or directory)

Please advise how to fix it.  What package shall I install to have other items under "Administration"?

TIA

gdmsetup is part of gdm.  Do you have gdm installed?  Even though you're
running gnome, it's possible not to have gdm...

Love your enemies: they'll go crazy trying to figure out what you're up to.
