--- Comment #26 from Fraser Tweedale <frase@frase.id.au> ---
Still occurring on FreeBSD 14.4.

GDM automatic login (per
https://help.gnome.org/system-admin-guide/login-automatic.html) works. 
However, lockup occurs at lock screen, so this isn't a very useful workaround.

I installed lightdm and, with seatd installed and configured via
seatd_enable="YES" in /etc/rc.conf, I can log in.  Also, in this setup, the
lock screen - which is or has the appearance of GDM - does work.
