Package: gnome-session
Version: 2.6.2-5
Severity: important
GNOME programs do not display themselves on the screen unless they are given the
flag --sm-disable. Other programs may or may not display themselves (e.g. xterm
does, but emacs does not). GNOME programs that are very tightly integrated with
the desktop (such as gnome-panel and evolution) do not display at all. None of
these programs exits with an error code; they just do nothing.
The actual behavior when I log in is just the splash screen showing up and nothi
ng else happening. Occasionally the splash screen will show icons for having sta
rted gnome-smproxy (and sometimes also galeon), but not always. The failsafe GNO
ME session also has this problem; I've been testing things out by launching the
failsafe xterm session and using that to start a window manager, other applicati
ons, and/or gnome-session.
This behavior does not change when I rename .gnome2 and delete the files in /tmp
(including /tmp/.ICE-unix and everything else owned by me). If I create a new u
ser, this new user has the same problem. The same is true if I create a new user
with an empty home directory (instead of the default .gnome2 from /etc/skel).
Upgrading the gnome-session package to 2.7.1-1 from experimental and the gnome p
ackages to their latest experimental versions did not fix this problem.
Here are the contents of .xsession-errors immediately after logging in:
/etc/gdm/PreSession/Default: Registering your session with wtmp and utmp
/etc/gdm/PreSession/Default: running: /usr/bin/X11/sessreg -a -w /var/log/wtmp -
u /var/run/utmp -x "/var/lib/gdm/:0.Xservers" -h "" -l ":0" "jacob"
/etc/gdm/Xsession: Beginning session setup...
SESSION_MANAGER=local/vlaszlo:/tmp/.ICE-unix/18022
Sometimes this file has another line at the end, reading "gnome-smproxy: unable
to connect to session manager"; however, this is not true all the time, and I ca
n't figure out when that line shows up and when it doesn't.
