I'm not aware that we do ship it - did you install it from the Debian 
package, perhaps?

Thanks for the tip. I guess if people run into that problem, they can 
always run the 32-bit distro on a 64-bit machine for now.

We did have one other report of crashes in the greeter, when upgrading 
to 1.2.0 by apt. If you can find a related error message in 
/var/log/gdm/ or elsewhere, please let us know.

Cheers!
