Public bug reported: Binary package hint: gdm
After upgrading to maverick login via gdm is broken. After typing username + password session is starting but instantly X (gdm) does restart and your back at the login screen. Used a "new created" user and reinstalled gdm already. ~/.xsession-errors does only got one line: /etc/gdm/Xsession: Beginning session setup... Thats all. /var/log/gdm/:0-greeter.log.1 does got this: .... ** (gdm-simple-greeter:29198): DEBUG: GdmGreeterSession: user authorized ** (gdm-simple-greeter:29198): DEBUG: GdmGreeterLoginWindow: user now authorized ** (gdm-simple-greeter:29198): DEBUG: GdmGreeterLoginWindow: starting session ** (gdm-simple-greeter:29198): DEBUG: GdmGreeterClient: Calling StartSessionWhenReady ** (gnome-session:29182): DEBUG: GdmSignalHandler: handling signal 15 ** (gnome-session:29182): DEBUG: GdmSignalHandler: Found 1 callbacks ** (gnome-session:29182): DEBUG: GdmSignalHandler: running 15 handler: 0x419ef0 ** (gnome-session:29182): DEBUG: Got callback for signal 15 ** (gnome-session:29182): DEBUG: GsmManager: Logout called ** (gnome-session:29182): DEBUG: GsmManager: requesting logout ** (gnome-session:29182): DEBUG: GsmManager: ending phase RUNNING ** (gnome-session:29182): DEBUG: GsmManager: starting phase QUERY_END_SESSION ... I wonder why GdmSignalHandler does receive signal 15 and is starting END_SESSION, don't know where to look further to get more information. Tried kdm and login is working fine there - only gdm does not work as expected. ** Affects: gdm (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- gdm broken after update to 10.10 - instant session end - signal 15 - after login https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/663135 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gdm in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
