[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 480744] Re: Failsafe X stuff shouldn't be stored in /etc/gdm
This bug was fixed in the package xorg - 1:7.6+7ubuntu1
---
xorg (1:7.6+7ubuntu1) oneiric; urgency=low
* Merge from Debian unstable, remaining changes:
- Add apport hook
- Demote xfonts-{75DPI,100DPI} to Suggests. Demote xfonts-scalable to
Recommends.
- debian/local/Xsession:
Truncate xsession-errors on startup if too big
- debian/local/Xsession.d/20x11-common_process-args:
Add support for session command containing args.
- debian/local/Xsession.d/60x11-common_localhost:
Authorise all processes running with the user's credentials to connect
to the server.
- debian/rules, debian/control:
Add dependencies on x11-common, and symlink /usr/share/doc directories
of all packages to x11-common's.
- debian/scripts/vars.*:
+ Don't drop wacom from input-all.
+ Add -vmmouse to input-all for amd64 and i386.
+ Add -qxl to video-all for amd64 and i386.
+ Add -geode to video-all for i386.
+ Drop video drivers that are likely irrelevant for ARM.
- debian/xserver-xorg.postinst.in: Also migrate users from psb → vesa.

* apport/source_xorg.py:
- Move Failsafe-X out of the xorg package to xdiagnose
(LP: #480744)
- Simplify answers for bug reporters filing post-release reports.
(LP: #778758)
- Remove attach_drm_info(). This is useful info but we use it very
infrequently, and it is already available in other log files. But the
call makes bug reports a bit cluttered since it adds a lot of lines to
the report itself.
[ Timo Aaltonen ]
* rules: A stampfile generation was commented out by mistake, uncomment
it.
* Rework the x11-common.{postinst,postrm,preinst} failsafe conffile
handling, the previous ones added in 1:7.6+4ubuntu1 were wrong too.
* scripts/vars.{amd64,i386,powerpc}: Remove apm, ark, chips, i128, i740,
rendition, s3virge, tseng, voodoo from xserver-xorg-video-all
dependencies. They are unmaintained and obsolete.
xorg (1:7.6+7) unstable; urgency=low
* Remove long obsolete XF86Config-4 on purge (Closes: #610450). Thanks,
Bernhard R. Link!
* Add support for armhf (Closes: #605841), Thanks, Konstantinos
Margaritis! Keep wacom in Recommends rather than in Depends, though.
* Set the same permissions on all debian/scripts/vars.* files: no need
to have them +x.
* Remove debian/scripts/validate-posix-sh, unused.
* Address description-synopsis-starts-with-article lintian tag.
* Bump Standards-Version (no changes needed).
* Merge xsf-docs up to the f920810e8f commit:
- Add: reference/experimental
- Add: reference/git-usage
- Update: faq/general (firmware for ATI)
- and other minor updates.
xorg (1:7.6+6) unstable; urgency=low
* Merge xsf-docs up to the bd39472b0c commit:
- Conversion from markdown to asciidoc.
* Tweak the Makefile accordingly to stop trying to build and install PDF
documents, since wkhtmltopdf fails on several architectures. Let's
enable them again later, once bugs are fixed.
* Adjust build system and build-dependencies accordingly:
- Add asciidoc build-dep.
- Remove markdown build-dep.
- Remove wkhtmltopdf, xauth, xvfb build-dep.
- Stop wrapping make with xvfb-run.
- Get rid of the sparc-specific workaround.
xorg (1:7.6+5) unstable; urgency=low
* Drop ati and sisusb from video-all on hurd-i386, thanks to Samuel
Thibault (Closes: #619862).
* Add Vcs-* fields.

Actually it probably is not a requirement to remove them from /etc during upgrades; it won't hurt anything, just be cruft. So the question just becomes, where to move them to... -- Failsafe X stuff shouldn't be stored in /etc/gdm https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/480744 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xorg in ubuntu. ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 480744] Re: Failsafe X stuff shouldn't be stored in /etc/gdm
The files are stored under /etc for historical reasons + laziness. Really, by Karmic these no longer even have anything to do with gdm, so there's little reason they should remain where they are. However, since they are in /etc/, if we move them we also need rules to safely remove the files from /etc during upgrades. At this point given a few of the other failsafe-x bugs, it might make sense to break these scripts out into a standalone package, rewrite it in python, and provide both ncurses and gui frontends. ** Changed in: xorg (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided = Wishlist ** Changed in: xorg (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete = Triaged -- Failsafe X stuff shouldn't be stored in /etc/gdm https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/480744 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xorg in ubuntu. ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

Hi superm1, Please attach the output of `lspci -vvnn` and `dmesg`, and attach your /var/log/Xorg.0.log (and maybe Xorg.0.log.old) file from after reproducing this issue. If you're using a custom /etc/X11/xorg.conf please attach that as well. [This is an automated message.
