Update: I finally figured out how to get past the login!!, turned out that i neded to actually copy some of the config examples from /usr/share/gdm/defults.conf and put them into my /etc/gdm/gdm.conf and do a little hacking to make shure that it will actually run.

Result:

Good: It now will automaticly go into the desktop!!
Bad: touch screen still won't work
Good: The power key will automaticly launch the power menu!!
Bad: The gnome-settings-demon has truble launching and gnome complains a lot about that.
Good: The desktop looks pritty responsive, In fact, It's allmost as responsive as KDE for maemo.
Thing i'll need to add: Install a keyboard applit so i can easily get the vertual keyboard.


Everything is finally starting to work But i am still having touch screen truble. like before, the touch screen is responsive but the desktop still refuses to work with it. This means that untill this problem gets resolved, I have allmost no control over my desktop. The only thing that i can really do is use the power menu with my d-pad and power key. Is there enny other way to get the touch screen to work? I don't want to remove gdm because from looking into how it works, gnome relys on it because, (if i am correct) unlike xfce4, gnome doesn't use x-session directly, instead, gdm handles x-sessions for gnome and launches gnome. This means that if i remove gdm, gnome may no longer be functional. Is there enny other way to hack gdm to allow a touch screen to run?
