[Bug 802271] Re: Characters sent to tty1
Strange. Fix released and it crashes for me hitting ENTER at the login prompt (running 11.10) I added vt=7 to /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf as below [SeatDefaults] greeter-session=unity-greeter user-session=ubuntu vt=7 and it stops crashing when hitting ENTER at the login promtpt. Nice! First question: Fix Released, but what is acctually fixed? Second question: it crashes if I start a terminal and press ENTER. Is there something else I need to fix? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/802271 Title: Characters sent to tty1 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lightdm/+bug/802271/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I confirm that the new version fixes this. lightdm now starts X at vt7, as it should.

1 July Daily Build live on boot, Acer Aspire one netbook Ctrl-Alt-t terminal session: dfenter killed Xorg. I don't know lightdm or plymouth code but it does appear to be consistent with the comment #6 above about a race condition. Difference is 1 July Xorg crashed then ubuntu immediately restarted X back to a login screen. I did not have to manually restart X. Subsequent dfenter no problem.

[Bug 802271] Re: Characters sent to tty1
This also happens on the live system, the first session seems to start on a VT which also has a getty on it (presumably VT1). At first startup, lightdm needs to ensure that it starts on a vt = 7, i. e. it cannot rely on X.org's grab the next free terminal detection. The alternative would be to not run a getty on vt1. I'm not 100% sure if oneiric's plymouth requires a different handling, but the above is what we did in natty and earlier for gdm: http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu- desktop/gdm/ubuntu/view/head:/debian/patches/06_first_vt.patch ** Changed in: lightdm (Ubuntu Oneiric) Assignee: (unassigned) = Robert Ancell (robert-ancell) ** Changed in: lightdm (Ubuntu Oneiric) Milestone: None = oneiric-alpha-2 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/802271 Title: Characters sent to tty1 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lightdm/+bug/802271/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

@jerrylamos Does it *only* occur when you type df and press enter, or does it occur **every time you press enter, no matter what** (as has been the case in all of my testing)? Does it occur when you press the 2 key on the alphanumeric portion (i.e., not the number pad) of the keyboard, as well (as has also been the case in all of my testing)? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/802271 Title: Characters sent to tty1 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lightdm/+bug/802271/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 802271] Re: Characters sent to tty1
Analysis with Robert: - currently lightdm tries to start on the active VT. It shouldn't do this; if plymouth is running it should use the active VT (after proper hand-off), otherwise it should take the next available - /etc/init/plymouth-stop.conf doesn't special-case lightdm currently, so plymouth is *never* running when lightdm starts - so we never get the hand off. As a result, we always have a race condition between the VT switch on plymouth exit, and the lightdm start-up. ** Changed in: lightdm (Ubuntu Oneiric) Status: New = Triaged -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/802271 Title: Characters sent to tty1 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lightdm/+bug/802271/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 802271] Re: Characters sent to tty1
In duplicate bug 798509, some characters (on a US/English keyboard, the 2 key in the alphanumeric portion of the keyboard, and both enter keys) trigger the X server to terminate (so it is not just that characters are sent to tty1--the X server also quits, popping the user back to a virtual console on tty1). Is that happening here as well? (Duplicate bug 798509 contains details about the specific conditions under which those keys do and do not trigger X server termination.) Duplicate bug 803559 also seems to suggest that the crash occurs when the enter key is pressed, though I extrapolate in saying so. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/802271 Title: Characters sent to tty1 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lightdm/+bug/802271/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
