[Bug 157622] Re: gdm hangs after login in gutsy
I just loaded Hardy daily-live 1/1/08 on an Asus P5VD2 MX SE Motherboard that has Via UniChrome Pro IGP on board Video and gdm problem does not exist. gdm works fine, on initial boot after install and all subsequent boot up, gnome desktop displays etc. etc., saves current desktop for use on next boot up. so I imagine that it has something to do with Nvidia or Nv drivers but only on selective machines, and/or selective Nvidia Cards. but directly relates to gdm because startx works and I believe startx would/should use the same Nvidia/Nv drivers? anyhow just some more information to help the bug squasher -- gdm hangs after login in gutsy https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/157622 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug contact for gdm in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

All application, file explorer, etc. windows are locked to upper left of display just under top bar (containing Application, Places, System etc.) and cant be moved no resize, move to other desktop etc. no window decorations No normal gnome colored title bar on any Application, Terminal etc. windows opened -- gdm hangs after login in gutsy https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/157622 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug contact for gdm in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

I have almost the exact same problem with hardy fresh install hardy daily a/o 1/1/08 also occurred in hardy 12/31/07 dont know about alpha2 did not test it my equipment intel 2.6 nvidia fx5200 asus p4p800 1G mem gutsy and other [K]Ubunus OS's on same machine work fine all console windows are accessable so you can kill gdm and all x-session stuff killed gdm and all X related procs started X executed gnome-session things work this way but logout brings me back to identical situation X, gdm, gnome-session all are running fine but no gnome desktop To test further I did the following moved /usr/bin/gnome-session to /usr/bin/orig.gnome-session wrote a shell containing the line strace /usr/bin/orig.gnome-session killed all X and gdm stuff restarted gdm logged in again with my little one line shell in the middle of gdm and gnome-session and things work perfectly in my old Unix coding days we referred to this type of behavior as a 'race condition' maybe that is what we have here -- gdm hangs after login in gutsy https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/157622 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug contact for gdm in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 157622] Re: gdm hangs after login in gutsy
When I upgraded from Feisty to Gutsy two days ago, I had the same problem. Looking at .xsession-errors I found the following error: 1198440598.912730 Session manager: gsm-remote-desktop.c:107: remote desktop server died, restarting 1198440598.916107 Session manager: gsm-remote-desktop.c:107: remote desktop server died, restarting 1198440608.837906 Session manager: gsm-remote-desktop.c:130: activation of OAFIID:GNOME_RemoteDesktopServer failed: System exception: IDL:omg.org/CORBA/COMM_FAILURE:1.0 This led me to think it was something related with remote desktop. So I fixed the problem by disabling it (the server name is "vino-server"). To do so, run from a terminal "vino-preferences" and disable remote desktop. Now reboot and it should work. This seems to fix bug #172444 too. I hope this helps. P.S.: I think there might be a bug in vino or in the gnome-session package (since gsm-remote-desktop.c belongs to that package), so this is just a quick fix. -- gdm hangs after login in gutsy https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/157622 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug contact for gdm in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 157622] Re: gdm hangs after login in gutsy
I am now experiencing this same problem. Its weird though cause it just started happening. The Login screen will come up and it accepts the user name and password that i put it. The login screen transitions to the brownish screen and then just hangs there. I can restart X by Zapping it. I can stop gdm with /etc/init.d/gdm stop and run startx and X starts fine. if you need any other info please let me know ** Attachment added: "info" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/10523497/info -- gdm hangs after login in gutsy https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/157622 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug contact for gdm in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

Sorry, I meant to reference bug #128803 above. I've also tried killing gnome panels as it recommends, but this does nothing. Another side note is that no process is using CPU time, so I can only think that the high CPU load is some sort of artificial inflation from IO? -- gdm hangs after login in gutsy https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/157622 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug contact for gdm in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 157622] Re: gdm hangs after login in gutsy
I left it on tonight at the brownish screen gdm stops at for about 12 hours, and still nothing happened. I'm guessing this rules out it being related to bug #61711, which I originally expected not to be the problem anyways. As a side note, when I start gdm from the recovery console, it pops up with a messagebox saying that the "HAL cannot be initialized!". Is it possible that this is the reason it works in the recovery console, that it pops up a messagebox again? -- gdm hangs after login in gutsy https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/157622 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug contact for gdm in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
