+GDM is installed.
+
+Do _NOT_ use /etc/ttys to start gdm at boot time. This will result in gdm
+hanging or restarting constantly. Instead, copy the included gdm.sh.sample
+script to gdm.sh, and restart. This script is found, by default, in
+/usr/X11R6/etc/rc.d.
+
+GDM uses its own locale.alias file to determine its language and especially
+the GNOME-2 fontencoding. This file is located, by default, in
+/usr/X11R6/etc/gdm/locale.alias. By default, the character set for every
+county using the EURO currency is set to ISO8859-15 in order to enable the
+EURO sign. If you don't feel comfortable with this, edit this file according
+to your preferences.
+
+If you are running 5.x and you are running 5.1-RELEASE or earlier, GDM will
+fail to work due to a bug in OpenPAM. You can download a patch from
+http://www.FreeBSD.org/~marcus/pam_get_user.c.diff. You must also have the
+FreeBSD src tree on your system. Do the following to apply the patch:
+
+# cd /usr
+# patch -p < /path/to/pam_get_user.c.diff
+
+
+Then rebuild and install world. Note, this bug does _NOT_ affect FreeBSD
+4.x.
