Okay, this is what I did: Install Ubuntu intrepid from the alternate CD, apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade, the debugging repository from the wikisite enabled, apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade again, installed the dbg-symbols for gdm. Reboot, then I edited the gdm.conf-custom to include: [customcommand] CustomCommand0=/usr/bin/yes Reboot again, at the point gdm asks for credentials, I followed the instructions at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Backtrace -> "Already running programs" to obtain a backtrace.
Hope this helps. ** Attachment added: "Backtrace of gdm failing with CustomCommand0=/usr/bin/yes" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/21773129/gdb-gdm.txt -- gdm crashes on execution of Custom Command https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/315484 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
