This bug was fixed in the package gdm3 - 3.18.3-0ubuntu2.1 --------------- gdm3 (3.18.3-0ubuntu2.1) xenial; urgency=medium
* Add git_restore-session-name-override.patch: - Explicitly set gdm's session-name to 'gnome'. This fixes the login screen not starting when the default session is set to something else, such as when a Ubuntu (Unity) user installs gnome-shell and chooses gdm but does not install ubuntu-gnome-desktop (LP: #1686257) -- Jeremy Bicha <jbi...@ubuntu.com> Tue, 02 May 2017 09:11:19 -0400 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gdm3 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1686257 Title: gdm3 fails to start when default session-name=ubuntu To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/gdm/+bug/1686257/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
