Problem:
Installed LTSP on my Ubuntu Desktop 9.10 (December 2010). Installation
succeeded wo/ any problems. Once LDM startet, only known users (before and
during installation) are able to login. Users created after said installation
aren't able to login. Even tough your sshd says all is fine
Forgot to mention some specs from the HP t5530 Thin Client:
VIA S3 graphics with support for high-resolution monitors up to 1680 x 1050, or
up to 32 bit
Graphics
Mode Refresh RatesColor Depth
800 x 600 60, 75, or 85 Hz 8, 16, or 32
Same here. Works fine without compiz, but usually cannot log in with
compiz enabled. Sometimes, randomly, it works and I can log in.
** Attachment added: .xsession-errors with Compiz enabled, crashing
The gconf2 command given in the bug description also fixes it for me:
sudo gconftool-2 --direct --config-source
xml:readwrite:/etc/gconf/gconf.xml.mandatory --type string --set
/desktop/gnome/session/required_components/windowmanager metacity
** Attachment added: .xsession-errors with Compiz

I see that gnome-wm chooses compiz when `xdpyinfo` contains Composite
, so I'm also attaching the output of xdpyinfo for that card that indeed
contains Composite.
So if Composite is enough to run compiz, maybe then it's a bug in the
UniChrome module or in compiz itself?
** Attachment added:
The error in the log on top is about non power of two textures
support. I really doubt that is required for Composite. from my PoV,
gnome-wm is been lazy and greedy... and after all having good GL support
will soon be a *requirement* to run Ubuntu.
