[Bug 395313] Re: gdm 2.26 kills or switches away from active X sessions on upgrading
My 2 cents: The first upgrade gave me a new login screen and I stayed logged in like everybody else. Now for the second one... I don't think It killed the session but simply logged out. At least aptitude that was running in yakuake didn't get killed until all updates were processed and firefox had time to close itself (Didn't tell me it had crashed). What I actually saw was getting kicked out to tty7 without X - and after a few seconds gdm came back up. -- gdm 2.26 kills or switches away from active X sessions on upgrading https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/395313 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gdm in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

OK, I just upgraded another machine from gdm 2.20 to 2.26, and can confirm that for that upgrade, the new gdm is erroneously started on vt8 / X screen :1 whilst the previous session remains happily alive on vt7 / :0. I am attaching apt-term.log from that upgrade - in particular I find it suspicious that there is first an attempt to reload gdm, which fails, followed by an attempt to start gdm afresh, with is presumably responsible for the extra spurious gdm. ** Attachment added: apt-term.log http://launchpadlibrarian.net/28685927/apt-term.log -- gdm 2.26 kills or switches away from active X sessions on upgrading https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/395313 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gdm in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

This also happens with x86--during upgrade, xsession will close without warning. There NEEDS to be a disclaimer or warning about this--I lost work by doing a update in the background then GDM updated. ** Changed in: gdm (Ubuntu) Status: New = Confirmed -- gdm 2.26 kills or switches away from active X sessions on upgrading https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/395313 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gdm in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

did it actually close the session or just switch vts? ** Changed in: gdm (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided = Low ** Changed in: gdm (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed = Incomplete -- gdm 2.26 kills or switches away from active X sessions on upgrading https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/395313 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gdm in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 395313] Re: gdm 2.26 kills or switches away from active X sessions on upgrading
For my gdm 2.20 to 2.26 upgrade I'm not sure - my experience was that I was taken from my X session to a new-style gdm, and on logging in, back to my previous X session. For my gdm 2.26.1-0ubuntu1 to -0ubuntu2 upgrade, it definitely killed my session outright. -- gdm 2.26 kills or switches away from active X sessions on upgrading https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/395313 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gdm in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

I had update-manager minimized whilst I was doing a forum posting (about this problem) the ?random? typing b0rked things rather well...I rebooted 7 everything came back---but it now looks more like the Fedora login--so I would gather that something was lost in passing.. -- gdm 2.26 kills or switches away from active X sessions on upgrading https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/395313 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gdm in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
