--- Begin Message ---Package: gdm3 Version: 3.8.4-6 Severity: grave Justification: renders package unusable Hi! Since the upgrade last weekend I am unable to get any login possibility to my X anymore with gdm3. The screen only keeps black. I can ctrl-alt-f1 to the text console, so it doesn't freeze up completely. I can startx /usr/bin/metacity so it's not the xorg configuration. When I try to startx gnome-session I get that splash screen that something went wrong and just wants to log me out (probably I should file that as a sperate bugreport?). Please let me know what you need to debug this further, it's pretty tiring to have to do the startx dance and send it a terminal to do anything graphical. :/ Thanks for looking into the issue!
