I investigated this some more and found the following:
- Added a local user (not in LDAP, but with home dir on NFS): this user can log
in without problems
- For a newly created user in the LDAP server logging in doesn't work and
appears to be hanging.
+ Several processes use a lot of CPU time:
++ gvfsd-trash --spawner :1.2 /org/gtk/gvfs/exec_spaw/0
++ //bin/dbus-daemon --fork --print-pid 6 --print-address 8 --session
++ nautilus -n
++ compiz
+ related to gvfsd-trash I found that on the NFS server the permissions and
time of the directory ~/.gvfs are:
drwx------ 2 gtest users 4.0K Apr 19 13:53 .gvfs
whereas on the client machine ls -lad ~/.gvfs gives:
dr-x------ 2 gtest users K Apr 19 15:36 .gvfs
(the time on this last entry is correct). Subsequently I killed the
gvfsd-trash process a couple of times (until it wasn't restarted anymore) and a
partially working desktop showed up. With that I mean: the Unity bar was
present, as well as the top menu bar with the status icons. However, in the
central desktop space nothing but blackness. No program I started showed a
window, although Alt-Tab showed their icons. I could also log out using the
menu in the top right corner, but I had to hit the enter key to select logout
from the popup window (which I couldn't see).
After that the permissions and time on the .gvfs directory where back at their
original state (drwx and 13:53, respectively).
Maybe this bug isn't (only) related to at-spi2-core anymore, but also to
gvfs?
