[Bug 45122] Re: hang on login after gnome-session has left a socket in /tmp/.ICE-unix

2006-10-14 Thread Brian Brunswick
Just got around to trying to reproduce this one again. With an uptodate dapper, it seems harder to get than it used to be. But I managed to get it, though only using ctrl-alt-backspace. (I've seen it without that before) A gnome session backtrace indeed looks quite suggestive - its stuck in a nes

Yes, same issue, different solution I guess. This one is just asking for the wording in the dialog be made clearer (Current wording in connection with the default suggested address localhost suggests that the solution in bug #54312 is already implemented) (But that solution would be really good to

Unmarked as duplicate because #13102 is talking about something else (that localhost isn't the correct address to use for connecting to this machine) This bug is complaining that its not clear from the dialog that vino has enabled all remote users to access this machine, especially without a passw

2006-06-16 Thread Brian Brunswick
It happened again. I'm not so convinced its metacity and not the X server. I had two instances of the deadlocked program. I clicked on one close box, got the force quit dialog, clicked on force quit, and got a frozen display. The force quit button was still pressed. ctrl-alt-f1 switched to anothe

Yes, the wm was hung, it wasn't possible to change focus. It did seem to hand over nicely to a new wm though I don't know whether the X protocol for that needs the previous one to be alive. It happened several times, but since then, I can't reproduce it with latest updates, even though I've carefu

Yes, I've seen it a few times now, and just reproduced it on demand again. If I log out normally and then immediately log in again, I get the same sort of hang - gnome session seeming unresponsive, stuck splash, and gnome terminal and eg gedit not opening. Note that the splash redraws with no text

2006-05-16 Thread Brian Brunswick
Ok, I reckon the hang on startup happens if a dead gnome-session has a left-over socket in /tmp/.ICE-unix. I've just done a successful logon after cleaning that up, even with a left-over gconfd. Since I was really reporting the hang on login, it would be worth renaming this bug and assigning it to

Oooh, interesting. In the hung state, gnome-terminal launched from a panel icon or the gnome menu fails to appear. But gnome-terminal run from the command line (from an xterm launched from a text console login) actually works. The non-working gnome-terminal hasn't got as far as running gnome-pty
