Joe Marcus Clarke 45803d45a4 * Update to 2.4.0.7.
* Apply patch so gdm finds chown when installing a new theme.
* Do not overwrite config files.
* Mention that gdm2 cannot be started from /etc/ttys, and include an RC script
  to do the job instead.

GDM is installed.
Please note the following:
- This port has been tested on 5.0-CURRENT and 4.4-RELEASE and higher.
- If you are running a version of FreeBSD prior to 4.5-PRERELEASE, you should
append these lines to your /etc/pam.conf, otherwise GDM will refuse all
logins:
# gdm config
gdm auth requisite pam_unix.so try_first_pass
gdm account requisite pam_unix.so try_first_pass
gdm session required pam_permit.so
- 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.
