Package: gdm Version: 2.20.10-1 Severity: important
This may be related to http://bugs.debian.org/480469 as well.... The first time I login with GDM I get a black screen followed by a re-display of the GDM login prompt. Thereafter login works. I am seeing this in syslog at the time of the GDM failure: acpid: client connected from 2278[0:0] acpid: 1 client rule loaded kernel: [ 179.880427] gdm[2271]: segfault at bfe61a85 ip b75a72da sp bfbee680 error 4 in libc-2.10.1.so[b7534000+141000] gdm[2270]: WARNING: gdm_cleanup_children: child 2271 crashed of signal 11 gdm[2270]: WARNING: gdm_cleanup_children: Slave crashed, killing its children kernel: [ 180.262494] mtrr: no MTRR for e0000000,800000 found acpid: client 2278[0:0] has disconnected acpid: client connected from 3766[0:0] acpid: 1 client rule loaded I happen to have two thinkpads with a very similar software configuration. this x24 is exhibiting the bug behavior, the other a21m is not. The only really significant difference between the two machines is that the buggy machine has an encrypted home directory that is mounted automatically by libpam-mount. This is my setup: http://blog.langex.net/index.cgi/Linux/encryption/encrypted-directory-on-login.html I am also experiencing another login-related bug on the same machine, also not showing on the machine that is not using libpam-mount: http://bugs.debian.org/555105 -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.30-2-686 (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages gdm depends on: ii adduser 3.111 add and remove users and groups ii debconf [debconf-2.0 1.5.28 Debian configuration management sy ii fluxbox [x-window-ma 1.1.1-2 Highly configurable and low resour ii gksu 2.0.2-2+b1 graphical frontend to su ii gnome-session [x-ses 2.26.2-1 The GNOME Session Manager ii gnome-terminal [x-te 2.28.1-1 The GNOME terminal emulator applic ii kde-window-manager [ 4:4.3.1-1 the KDE 4 window manager (KWin) ii konsole [x-terminal- 4:4.3.1-1 X terminal emulator for KDE 4 ii libart-2.0-2 2.3.20-2 Library of functions for 2D graphi ii libatk1.0-0 1.28.0-1 The ATK accessibility toolkit ii libattr1 1:2.4.44-1 Extended attribute shared library ii libc6 2.10.1-5 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libcairo2 1.8.8-2 The Cairo 2D vector graphics libra ii libdbus-1-3 1.2.16-2 simple interprocess messaging syst ii libdbus-glib-1-2 0.82-2 simple interprocess messaging syst ii libdmx1 1:1.0.2-3 X11 Distributed Multihead extensio ii libfontconfig1 2.6.0-4 generic font configuration library ii libfreetype6 2.3.11-1 FreeType 2 font engine, shared lib ii libglade2-0 1:2.6.4-1 library to load .glade files at ru ii libglib2.0-0 2.22.2-2 The GLib library of C routines ii libgnomecanvas2-0 2.26.0-1 A powerful object-oriented display ii libgtk2.0-0 2.18.3-1 The GTK+ graphical user interface ii libpam-modules 1.1.0-4 Pluggable Authentication Modules f ii libpam-runtime 1.1.0-4 Runtime support for the PAM librar ii libpam0g 1.1.0-4 Pluggable Authentication Modules l ii libpango1.0-0 1.26.0-1 Layout and rendering of internatio ii librsvg2-2 2.26.0-1 SAX-based renderer library for SVG ii librsvg2-common 2.26.0-1 SAX-based renderer library for SVG ii libselinux1 2.0.87-3 SELinux runtime shared libraries ii libwrap0 7.6.q-18 Wietse Venema's TCP wrappers libra ii libx11-6 2:1.2.2-1 X11 client-side library ii libxau6 1:1.0.5-1 X11 authorisation library ii libxdmcp6 1:1.0.2-3 X11 Display Manager Control Protoc ii libxext6 2:1.0.4-1 X11 miscellaneous extension librar ii libxi6 2:1.2.1-2 X11 Input extension library ii libxinerama1 2:1.0.3-2 X11 Xinerama extension library ii libxml2 2.7.6.dfsg-1 GNOME XML library ii lsb-base 3.2-23 Linux Standard Base 3.2 init scrip ii lxsession [x-session 0.3.8+svn20090521-1 a lightweight X11 session manager ii lxterminal [x-termin 0.1.6-1 desktop independent vte-based term ii metacity [x-window-m 1:2.28.0-1 lightweight GTK+ window manager ii mrxvt [x-terminal-em 0.5.4-1 lightweight multi-tabbed X termina ii openbox [x-window-ma 3.4.7.2-5 standards compliant, fast, light-w ii rxvt [x-terminal-emu 1:2.6.4-14 VT102 terminal emulator for the X ii rxvt-ml [x-terminal- 1:2.6.4-14 multi-lingual VT102 terminal emula ii xterm [x-terminal-em 250-1 X terminal emulator Versions of packages gdm recommends: ii dialog 1.1-20080819-1 Displays user-friendly dialog boxe ii gdm-themes 0.6.2 Themes for the GNOME Display Manag ii whiptail 0.52.10-4.1 Displays user-friendly dialog boxe ii xserver-xephyr 2:1.6.5-1 nested X server ii xserver-xorg 1:7.4+4 the X.Org X server ii zenity 2.28.0-1 Display graphical dialog boxes fro Versions of packages gdm suggests: ii libpam-gnome-keyring 2.28.1-1 PAM module to unlock the GNOME key ii locales 2.10.1-5 GNU C Library: National Language ( ii pm-utils 1.2.5-4 utilities and scripts for power ma -- debconf information: gdm/daemon_name: /usr/bin/gdm * shared/default-x-display-manager: gdm -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
