Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: gdm
I have a fairly fresh Lucid system installed from scratch over Karmic.
In Lucid, I often experience that the lightning-fast boot presents me
with a login screen as expected but when clicking on a user, using the
arrow keys, or pressing enter, it turns out to be completely frozen.
After a lag of typically several seconds (~10), the response comes and
at that time, the user may have clicked around a lot, which typically
results in "authentification error" and the need to do the login over
again. Utterly annoying, of course.
Looking in the log files, I see warnings like:
gdm-session-worker[1287]: WARNING: Unable to load file '/etc/gdm/custom.conf':
Filen eller katalogen finns inte
gdm-binary[880]: WARNING: Unable to find users: no seat-id found
gdm-simple-greeter[1379]: Gtk-WARNING:
/build/buildd/gtk+2.0-2.20.1/gtk/gtkwidget.c:5636: widget not within a GtkWindow
I don't know if they are connected or relevant at all but include them
here just in case. Please let me know if I should provide more input.
