Package: gnome-session Version: 2.14.0-2 Severity: important Note: can't tell whether that's a X or Gnome (or Nautilus?) bug. Looks like a Gnome bug, as fluxbox doesn't trigger it.
Just upgraded my testing box, got gnome 2.14 installed. Rebooted, tried to login at gdm prompt. Gnome looked like it was starting up, the splash screen said "Nautilus" (showing the ugly icon, btw, see #356314), and then X suddenly died. Xorg.0.log shows: [...] Could not init font path element unix/:7100, removing from list! Could not init font path element /usr/lib/X11/fonts/Speedo, removing from list! *** If unresolved symbols were reported above, they might not *** be the reason for the server aborting.

Server aborting Tried several times and several times it died the same way. Eventually tried to login using "fluxbox" instead of gnome, which worked just fine.
