DVD 64bits with Gnome
In gdm, "Guest account" doesn't appear. We have "Others...". At this point, if we enter "xguest", Mageia starts into guest account. At reboot, "Guest account" appear.

@ Manuel

we're still on the same version of gdm, so the problem is still there and we can ask Olav whether he thinks this is a gdm issue or an installer one?

I think that it's not an issue with gdm.
Comment 4 Marja Van Waes 2011-11-12 23:25:02 CET
Both for Mga 1 DVD 64bits and DVD32bits, I didn't have this issue with KDM.

Reporter ;) , when you install Mga 2 alpha, please report whether the bug is still valid
