Public bug reported: Binary package hint: xorg
How to reproduce: sudo mkdir /etc/X11/Xsession.d/directory Now any login attempt from gdm fails. I discovered this problem because the 'fglrx' package (ATI proprietary video driver), probably from an old version of Ubuntu, created a directory /etc/X11/Xsession.d/70fglrx_32bit_dri. The directory was still there after the Lucid->Maverick upgrade. I appears that this directory was not a problem in previous version of xorg (such as Ubuntu Lucid), so this is a recent change in Xsession for Maverick.
