Hello! I'll happily answer any questions about this.
I can reproduce the problem on my box. Just to re-iterate how to reproduce: * sudo ln -sf bash /bin/sh * Make sure you have bash script or two in "Startup Applications" * Have your .bash_profile stupidly source /etc/bash_completion (in my case by sourcing ~/.bashrc). * Log out. * Try to log back in. It just kicks you right out and the following lines appear in the ~/.xsession-errors file: /etc/gdm/Xsession: Beginning session setup... /etc/bash_completion.d/apport_completion: line 128: `_apport-bug': not a valid identifier This is a some-what pathological setup, because of the .bash_profile sourcing .bashrc, but a lot of people thrash around wrt to which file does what in bash. A fix for this is to wrap all of bash_completion in an if [[ ! shopt -oq posix ]]; then .. fi block. -- gdm can't login to any session https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/596149 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
