Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: gdm
One of our testers discovered that he has to login twice if he logs out.
This happens on all of our workstations. We've seen this with nvidia,
ati, intel, and virtualbox.
Here is what happens:
1. boot. result: gdm loads.
2. login. result: success.
3. logout. result: gdm loads.
4. login. result: gdm crashes and reloads.
5. login. result: success.
6. logout. result: gdm loads.
7. login. result: gdm crashes and reloads.
steps 2-4 repeat.
I found an error message in /var/log/gdm/:0-slave.log.1 after the crash.
I will attach that file. The error says "could not find user...".
However, I can repeatedly login on the cli and via ssh at any stage of
this issue. If I log in via ssh when gdm would crash, gdm still crashes
the next time I login via gdm.
This is not a duplicate of lp bug #532047. I have disabled plymouth-
splash and later purged plymouth. Neither fixed the problem.
I tested with a local user. The bug does not show up when I login and
logout repeatedly with the local user. The bug does happen if I try to
login with an LDAP user after logging out from the local user's session.
Thank you.
