Public bug reported:
https://launchpad.net/malone/bugs/35217
Affects: gdm (Ubuntu)
Severity: Normal
Priority: (none set)
Status: Unconfirmed
Description:
I track Dapper. I did an apt-get upgrade today, rebooted, and was
unable to log in. After I entered my username and password, I'd briefly
see the first text console, and gdm would show me the login prompt
again.
I tried logging into /dev/tty1 and using startx, and that's where I got
an error message mentioing something about being unable to create an
authentication socket in /tmp because the disk was full. sudo apt-get
autoclean fixed things.
It would be nice if gdm could tell the user when the session fails
because there is no free disk space in /tmp.
