Public bug reported: On seemingly random boots, gnome-session fails to load and simply goes to a black screen after first showing the "gnome stiped blue background" for around two seconds. the greeter log in var/log/gdm (see attached) reports this error
"gnome-session[2272]: WARNING: Session 'gdm-shell' runnable check failed: Timed out" only on the sessions where gnome-session fails to load, on all of the sessions where the computer boots fine this error is not present. The error seems to happen multiple times in succession, but then on a 3rd or 4th attempt booting will rectify itself and will load fine. I am running Ubuntu raring x64, using the Ubuntu-Gnome-Remix base. I also have the gnome-staging ppa installed. ** Affects: gnome-session (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-session in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1133120 Title: gnome-session failing to load dude to timeout error on random boots Status in “gnome-session” package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: On seemingly random boots, gnome-session fails to load and simply goes to a black screen after first showing the "gnome stiped blue background" for around two seconds. the greeter log in var/log/gdm (see attached) reports this error "gnome-session[2272]: WARNING: Session 'gdm-shell' runnable check failed: Timed out" only on the sessions where gnome-session fails to load, on all of the sessions where the computer boots fine this error is not present.
