305 settings (LP: #384061).

2785 and thus share its user-adding code rather than duplicating it.
2786 - But don't enable it yet, since we need to find a way to prevent its

2879 - This doesn't work very well yet (PCI BusID doesn't seem to get
2880 updated, for example), so we still don't start gdm by default)

2882 the right thing if gdm or X isn't installed
