So. I've removed `~/.config/dconf/user` and now I can start the session again. The only difference in GsettingsChanges is the list of notification apps (which, btw, could possibly be considered sensitive, and could be redacted by apport).
Setting it back to the value when the session was broken didn't break it again. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-shell in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1991777 Title: gnome-shell deadlocked on startup Status in gnome-shell package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: My Ubuntu session is currently impossible to launch. Upon trying, I get a couple ~blank displays, sometimes along with a cursor at the position it was in GDM. Only way out is `chvt …`, or killing gnome-shell, over SSH. "Ubuntu on Xorg" works fine. The wayland session does work for a test user as well.
