Public bug reported: Binary package hint: openbox
I can't log into an openbox session from the new GDM. I used sudo apt- get install openbox and the openbox session appears in the session menu, and I am able to select it, but it won't log into openbox. It keeps bringing me right back to the GDM screen. I'm thinking that the openbox package hasn't been updated to work with the new GDM, since I had no trouble at all getting into openbox in Jaunty's GDM. This is openbox version 3.4.7.2-4 for Karmic. I had this problem in Karmic Beta, and still having the same problem in Karmic RC. lsb_release -rd Description: Ubuntu 9.10 Release: 9.10 (Karmic Release Candidate) apt-cache policy openbox openbox: Installed: 3.4.7.2-4 Candidate: 3.4.7.2-4 Version table: *** 3.4.7.2-4 0 500 http://mirror.anl.gov karmic/universe Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status (I changed mirrors because I didn't plan on updating tonight, but I had this same problem from the main US repo while using the beta karmic.)
