Hi Olivier, Some information about this bug. I have fixed this same issue on a Sarge install in the last couple of days and tracked it down to when I ran
% sudo kwifimanager it created this .ICEauthority in my user home dir which cause Gnome boot to fail -rw------- 1 root root 362 2005-11-30 15:37 .ICEauthority all the best Ashley PS this is my first time using the BTS and I am learning as I go. I shall report this bug to kwifimanager too.
