[Bug 157622] Re: gdm hangs after login in gutsy

2008-01-03 Thread jtholmes

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

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

I said things work perfectly using my little one line shell
not quite so.

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

[Bug 157622] Re: gdm hangs after login in gutsy

2007-12-23 Thread Giorgio Vazzana
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.

2007-11-22 Thread Dwight Shepherd
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

2007-10-27 Thread CJ Corsi
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?

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?
