Can you start the fallback session with --debug and attach ~/.xsession-errors. uh, this is weird. I spend almost two hours yesterday debugging the problem, and I was sure that before I remove the autostart file, logging into a gnome-fallback session wihh a blank homedirectory would cause the session to take too long and then gnome-session would display a message that it could not bring up the session and one needs to log out. (That window can be closed using Alt-F4 and the session still works, but it also indicated that gnome-session failed to start a required component). I first tried to hack libegg session management support into notification-daemon, but that did not seem to be the problem. But now I tried to reproduce it and utterly failed: After apt-get --reinstall install notification-daemon and starting again with a blank home directory, the fallback mode cam up just fine. I guess this needs to be tagged moreinfo for now. I’ll keep an eye on it, though. Greetings, Joachim PS: One reason could be: I think I once manually created a /etc/xdg/autostart/notification-daemon.desktop file, before it was added to the package. Maybe for some reason gnome-session did not detect that it was talking about the same service that is mentioned in the session file, and thus tried to start it twice. But from the shell history I see that it had the same name, and there is no identifier inside the .desktop file. -- Joachim nomeata Breitner Debian Developer nome...@debian.org | ICQ# 74513189 | GPG-Keyid: 4743206C JID: nome...@joachim-breitner.de | http://people.debian.org/~nomeata signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part

Bug#648474: notification-daemon holds up gnome3-fallback start sequence
Hi, I debugged this some more, the reason is that the notification-daemon is both autostarted by /etc/xdg/autostart/notification-daeomon.desktop (from the notification-daemon package) and by /usr/share/gnome-session/sessions/gnome-fallback.desktop. So one starts, and the otherone quits immediately (due to the DBUS name being taken) and gnome-session will wait endlessly. Possible solutions: * Remove the autostart file again. * Remove the notification-daemon entry from the session definition. * Ignore the autostart file in the gnome-fallback session somehow. * (Or maybe find a way to use dbus activation without race conditions.)

Package: notification-daemon Version: 0.7.3-1 Severity: normal -BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Hi, I just finally upgraded to GNOME3, which I use in the fallback mode to make use of xmonad.
