[Bug 1776534] Re: Input devices stop working after logout or switch-user
My /var/crash has 3 crashes currently, none of them at the time of the problem: * update manager * puredata * apport-gtk errors.ubuntu.com has a longer list, includes nautilus, audacity, xwayland, gvfs-backends. (gdm3 is not in the list). I brought the system to the same frozen state again (happens everytime I log out), logged in through ssh, didn't see any change in /var/crash. None shows up at journalctl either (attachment to original post). Could it be possible that it's not really a crash but some invalid state? Let me know if I can get some additional log/info through ssh when the machine is in problem state. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gdm3 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1776534 Title: Input devices stop working after logout or switch-user To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gdm3/+bug/1776534/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

[Bug 1776534] Re: Input devices stop working after logout or switch-user
** Package changed: ubuntu => gdm3 (Ubuntu) ** Description changed: laptop: HP G42 Ubuntu: 18.04 LTS After clicking logout or switch user, once the system reaches the greeter/login screen, input devices -- keyboard, mouse, touchpad -- stop working, making it impossible to login back or shutdown. Initially I thought the system is frozen, but log shows that it still - respnds to lid open/close, usb plug/unplug events, scheduled background + responds to lid open/close, usb plug/unplug events, scheduled background tasks etc. Only the input devices, both onboard and external, are not usable. There's an external monitor attached to the laptop, and it shows the greeter and changes when lid is open or closed. What works: * logging in during fresh boot. Keyboard and mouse work at the greeter. * suspend/resume, lock/unlock screen. I'm able to enter password and get back to my session. * shutdown/restart while logged in. What doesn't work: * logout * switch user 17.10 and other previous versions of ubuntu didn't have this issue on the same machine. + + Workaround: restart gdm3 from a remote client. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gdm3 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1776534 Title: Input devices stop working after logout or switch-user To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gdm3/+bug/1776534/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 1723025] Re: no login screen when booting with an external monitor attached
I have a very similar issue in 17.04. The external display is treated as the second screen, and login screen's main area goes to laptop's inbuilt screen even though the lid is closed. This started in 17.04, was never an issue in 16.04. External monitor connected through HDMI is still functional. It shows the background image with dots overlay at login screen. There are two workarounds: 1. If I open and close laptop's lid, the login screen switches over to external display. 2. If I move the mouse towards right, as it enters the second screen area, login screen comes to external monitor. If either of these workarounds help in 17.10, probably it's a bug carried forward from 17.04 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gdm3 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1723025 Title: no login screen when booting with an external monitor attached To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-release-notes/+bug/1723025/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
