[Bug 462201] Re: GDM autologin not working on Karmic ONLY AFTER using Jaunty (or probably also older ubuntu versions) and rebooting into Karmic

2009-11-13 Thread Garrett Derner
Interesting!  Soon maybe I will try KMS, when I am working on a system
that supports it.

For now, on the system with the Nvidia, I removed the proprietary driver
again, so now autologin seems to work fine.  I did try the earlier,
version 96 drivers, but found the same problem.  Also I no longer
suspect TimedLogin makes any difference in likelyhood of occurrence.

2009-11-13 Thread Garrett Derner
I put the nvidia driver back (version 173.14.20; the card is a GeForce
FX 5500).  Right away on the first restart, I was required to log in.
In six restarts since putting the driver back, three have gone through
automatically; the other three required me to log in.

If I set TimedLoginEnable=true, the timer countdown (with a clock
animation) shows OK onscreen, then sometimes the bug occurs anyway: the
countdown finishes and the login dialog goes away so I see just the
background with "Xubuntu" and a swarming electrons animation, then the
screen goes black for a second, then that background with swarming
lights comes back, then the login dialog comes back and requires login.

I cannot say conclusively, maybe TimedLogin does not matter at all, but
it seems like maybe the bug may is more likely to occur when
TimedLoginEnable=false, or when TimedLoginDelay is set to a low number
like 5.

Five more successful autologins; that makes 10 in a row.  Before I
removed the nvidia driver, I was getting stopped by the login screen
around half the time.  Now I wlll try putting the nvidia driver back, to
verify that it triggers the bug.  Also I may try an earlier version of
the driver.

2009-11-12 Thread Garrett Derner
Could it be related to a proprietary display driver?  I had been using
an Nvidia driver, but I just removed it, and succeeded in logging in
automatically five times in a row, so far.  I will try some more
tomorrow, and let you know what happens.

P.S.  Here is my /etc/gdm/custom.conf  
It shows timed login disabled, but the bug seems to be the same, whether timed 
login is enabled or disabled. 

[daemon]
AutomaticLoginEnable=true
AutomaticLogin=garrett
TimedLoginEnable=false
TimedLogin=garrett
TimedLoginDelay=1

That sounds like the problem I, too, am having (but in my case, I think
it does not matter what I booted previously; it can happen booting
Karmic twice in a row).

It started after I did a fresh install of Xubuntu 9.10 (final),
selecting autologin.  Ever since, sometimes it does log in
automatecally, but sometimes it stops me for the password.  Like
Jigoita, I have tried gdmsetup.

Pedro,

How do I obtain a backtrace in Intrepid?

The page

http://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingProgramCrash

does not mention Intrepid. Nevertheless, I tried using:

deb http://ddebs.ubuntu.com intrepid main universe

deb http://ddebs.ubuntu.com intrepid-updates main universe

deb http://ddebs.ubuntu.com intrepid-proposed main universe

deb http://ddebs.ubuntu.com intrepid-security main universe


That does not work; it gives me 404s when I try to update.

Garrett
