One is that the rtkit-daemon service fails to start up and the

and I can't enter a password in gdm. C-A-F2 does get me back to a
vt. On another machine with a nv28 based video card I get the Oh no
something went wrong page, but again I can still use C-A-F2 to get
to a vt.

I am still seeing this with 3.8.0-0.rc6.git1.1.fc19.i686.PAE.

However, I have found the GUI issues are because gnome is waiting on
the rtkit-daemon and once it times out, things are OK.

I had also problems with this and other daemons...
If you are using systemd, check if rtkit wants to run with PrivateTmp=yes.
If this is so, then check that your /tmp is _not_ a symlink, but
a real dir...
