Lucid - no bug Maverick - upgrade from Lucid - bug Both of these machines use the nvidia driver.
The reproduction, at least for me, is quite simple; open qtconfig-qt4 and try to change a dropdown, like GUI Style. Open VLC, and almost any activity that involves input widgets will cause the session to terminate immediately. I tried creating a new user and reproduced the issue in the same manner, using qtconfig, so I don't believe it to be related to some stale/corrupt config. I have seen various posts in various places that suggest xinerama/twinview to be the problem. I also note that despite the fact that I have the same failed assertion, and almost everything noted in #23, this issue appears as though it may have been hijacked. Can any of you that have reported GDM session termination please try the qtconfig reproduction? If that does indeed reliably reproduce this issue does anyone have an idea how to proceed? john -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gdm in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/540774 Title: G_VALUE_HOLDS_BOOLEAN (value)' failed Status in “gdm” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Binary package hint: gdm Lucid B1 updated got this warning into syslog: gdm-session-worker[1165]: GLib-GObject-CRITICAL: g_value_get_boolean: assertion `G_VALUE_HOLDS_BOOLEAN (value)' failed ProblemType: Bug Architecture: i386 Date: Thu Mar 18 10:18:13 2010 DistroRelease: Ubuntu 10.04 NonfreeKernelModules: nvidia Package: gdm 2.29.92-0ubuntu3 [modified: var/lib/gdm/.gconf.defaults/%gconf-tree.xml] ProcEnviron: LANG=fr_FR.utf8 SHELL=/bin/bash ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 2.6.32-16.25-generic-pae SourcePackage: gdm Uname: Linux 2.6.32-16-generic-pae i686 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gdm/+bug/540774/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
