GNOME screwed up!!!!!!!
This is a major one I have. I had configured automatic configuration of activation of my modem when I startup my work in GNOME as a user. What happens is, that whenever I login, the modem starts dialing to the ISP and connects to the internet and after a very long time say around 15 minutes, I see the full screen with all the respective things. But for those 15 minutes there is just a blank screen.
Secondly, once I had configured automatic login for a particular user. Now I have deleted it. Still there is a message that appears at the login screen with automatic login of the user. Please guide me how to remove this and the solution of GNOME
