"Login Window" does not open correctly

[uho]

I recently installed ubuntu on my dell inspiron 1525. I was playing around with it and I modified the theme of the login screen via "Login Window". However, now when I try to open this app (System->Administration->Login Window), I see the application dialog flash and then immediately quit.

This is something to try at least.Open up a terminal window and try:

gksu /usr/sbin/gdmsetup

See if that will allow you to get into the interface.

This is what the terminal sends back to me


When I run 'sudo gksu /usr/sbin/gdmsetup':


GLib-GIO-CRITICAL: g_simple_async_result_set_from_error: assertion `error != NULL' failed
