Bug 1933633 is a clean exit whereas this bug 1960336 is a segfault. So the two bugs should be kept separate.
We can make this bug about both your issues though: (a) fprintd crashes with SIGSEGV; and (b) login screen can't survive fprintd failure. Next please follow the steps in https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/Responses#Missing_a_crash_report_or_having_a_.crash_attachment to look for the fprintd crash. ** Changed in: gdm3 (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete => New ** Also affects: fprintd (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Summary changed: - No login screen when fprintd is installed and not starting + No login screen when fprintd crashes ** Changed in: fprintd (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => High ** Changed in: fprintd (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete ** Changed in: gdm3 (Ubuntu) Importance: High => Medium -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gdm3 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1960336 Title: No login screen when fprintd crashes Status in fprintd package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Status in gdm3 package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: After a recent update, when using gdm3 as login manager, there is no account visible and it is not possible to login. When switching to lightdm I can login but sleep is broken and some notifications do not work. Running the latest 22.04 dev branch with Wayland and Nvidia driver. Had to select kernel 5.12 to have display link working. This issue occurs with and without external displays attached. A recent attempt to switch back to gdm3 gave me just a black screen. I tried to reinstall gdm3 to no avail. This seems like a quite serious issue, hence this report for the dev version. --- ProblemType: Bug ApportVersion: 2.20.11-0ubuntu76 Architecture: amd64 CasperMD5CheckResult: unknown CurrentDesktop: ubuntu:GNOME DisplayManager: lightdm DistroRelease: Ubuntu 22.04 InstallationDate: Installed on 2019-12-17 (784 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 19.10 "Eoan Ermine" - Release amd64 (20191017) NonfreeKernelModules: nvidia_modeset wl nvidia Package: gnome-shell 41.3-1ubuntu1 PackageArchitecture: amd64 RelatedPackageVersions: mutter-common 41.3-1ubuntu1 Tags: third-party-packages jammy Uname: Linux 5.12.19-051219-generic x86_64 UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) UserGroups: adm cdrom dialout dip docker libvirt lpadmin lxd microk8s plugdev sambashare sudo _MarkForUpload: True To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/fprintd/+bug/1960336/+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
