Bug#385958: gnome-session: Startup fails with my configuration
Package: gnome-session Version: 2.14.3-1 Severity: important There is something weird happening when I attempt to start GNOME with my session settings (included below), namely the startup begins normally and then kaboom the session ends prematurely and I am returned to the login manager (or shell where startx was invoked). My prime suspect for this behaviour is the fact that I am using two display setup without Xinerama and therefor there has to be two instances of my favourite window manager FVWM (currently from Debian package fvwm-gnome 2.5.17-1) and given that there has already been reports on that gnome-session fails to launch multiple instances of xterm, my problems may be related to that. I've tried with another user account, where the window manager is sawfish and there seems to be no problem. Also on a laptop I manage to run the very same GNOME and FVWM versions fine, but there I have just one screen, so the problem most likely has something to do with my desktop dualhead X configuration. -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers unstable APT policy: (990, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.17-2-686 Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=fi_FI (charmap=ISO-8859-1) Versions of packages gnome-session depends on: ii gconf2 2.14.0-4GNOME configuration database syste ii gnome-control-center 1:2.14.2-3 utilities to configure the GNOME d ii libatk1.0-0 1.12.1-1The ATK accessibility toolkit ii libbonobo2-0 2.14.0-1Bonobo CORBA interfaces library ii libc62.3.6.ds1-4 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libesd0 0.2.36-3Enlightened Sound Daemon - Shared ii libgconf2-4 2.14.0-4GNOME configuration database syste ii libglib2.0-0 2.10.3-3The GLib library of C routines ii libgnome-desktop-2 2.14.3-1Utility library for loading .deskt ii libgnome2-0 2.14.1-3The GNOME 2 library - runtime file ii libgnomeui-0 2.14.1-2The GNOME 2 libraries (User Interf ii libgtk2.0-0 2.8.20-1The GTK+ graphical user interface ii libice6 1:1.0.0-3 X11 Inter-Client Exchange library ii liborbit21:2.14.0-2 libraries for ORBit2 - a CORBA ORB ii libpango1.0-01.12.3-2Layout and rendering of internatio ii libsm6 1:1.0.1-2 X11 Session Management library ii libwrap0 7.6.dbs-11 Wietse Venema's TCP wrappers libra ii libx11-6 2:1.0.0-8 X11 client-side library ii libxau6 1:1.0.0-4 X11 authorisation library ii libxrandr2 2:1.1.0.2-4 X11 RandR extension library Versions of packages gnome-session recommends: ii dbus 0.62-4 simple interprocess messaging syst ii desktop-base 0.3.17 common files for the Debian Deskto ii gnome-panel 2.14.3-1launcher and docking facility for ii metacity 1:2.14.5-1 A lightweight GTK2 based Window Ma ii nautilus 2.14.3-1file manager and graphical shell f ii sawfish 1:1.3+cvs20060518-3 a window manager for X11 -- no debconf information -- my .gnome2/session [Default] 0,id=117f010001036080598001160 0,Program=swisswatch 0,CloneCommand=swisswatch -g -5+5 0,RestartCommand=swisswatch -g -5+5 1,id=117f019382912080006310007 1,RestartStyleHint=2 1,Priority=40 1,Program=gnome-panel 1,CurrentDirectory=/home/hezu 1,CloneCommand=gnome-panel --sm-config-prefix /gnome-panel-tLMLI7/ --profile default 1,RestartCommand=gnome-panel --sm-config-prefix /gnome-panel-tLMLI7/ --sm-client-id 117f019382912080006310007 --screen 0 --profile default 2,id=11c0a800010001077701252013001 2,Program=hardware-monitor 2,CurrentDirectory=/home/hezu 2,CloneCommand=hardware-monitor --sm-config-prefix /hardware-monitor-Ry5nfh/ 2,RestartCommand=hardware-monitor --sm-config-prefix /hardware-monitor-Ry5nfh/ --sm-client-id 11c0a800010001077701252013001 --screen 0 3,id=11c0a8000100010776703740032340062 3,Program=xterm 3,CloneCommand=xterm -g +560+806 3,RestartCommand=xterm -xtsessionID 11c0a8000100010776703740032340062 -g +560+806 4,id=11c0a8000100010777014170130010003 4,Program=xterm 4,CloneCommand=xterm -display :0.1 -g +1+25 -T Muffin\\ window 4,RestartCommand=xterm -xtsessionID 11c0a8000100010777014170130010003 -display :0.1 -g +1+25 -T Muffin\\ window 5,id=11c0a8000100010777014350130010004 5,Program=xterm 5,CloneCommand=xterm -fn -sony-fixed-medium-r-normal--16-120-100-100-c-80-iso8859-1 -g -1+150 5,RestartCommand=xterm -xtsessionID 11c0a8000100010777014350130010004 -fn -sony-fixed-medium-r-n

It looks like "just another libxklavier crash"... Question 1: after that happens, is there a trace of a crash in /var/log/Xorg.0.log.old ?

I checked and yes, there is a trace of crash. Relevant parts of that log seem to be: SetKbdSettings - type: -1 rate: 30 delay: 500 snumlk: 0 *** If unresolved symbols were reported above, they might not *** be the reason for the server aborting.

Server aborting Looks like a bug with your X11 driver. Here are some workarounds you can try: * use EXA acceleration instead of XAA.
