[Bug 1739019] Re: Gnome Shell does not start in Xorg mode
Thanks. It looks like Xorg is running but sounds like gnome-shell is missing or hung. Do you find any crash files in /var/crash? If so, please use the 'ubuntu-bug' command to upload them and also add a comment here mentioning the new bug ID. Otherwise... While your screen is black, switch VTs again (Ctrl+Alt+F4 or really anything from F3 upward) and login. Now does 'ps auxw | grep gnome- shell' show any gnome-shell process? If so then please force it to dump a crash file with something like this: kill -TRAP And look in /var/crash again, per above. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1739019 Title: Gnome Shell does not start in Xorg mode To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-shell/+bug/1739019/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

OK. Keep an eye out for new Xorg.log files. In the mean time, please try: 1. From the login screen go Ctrl+Alt+F4 and log into the text console. 2. Ctrl+Alt+F1 to return to the login screen. 3. Try to log into Xorg mode again. 4. While the Xorg session is failing to start, return to Ctrl+Alt+F4 and run: journalctl > latestlog.txt 5.

I had removed old Xorg.log files from /var/log last time I was trying to debug this. Strangely, the files are not even generated now anymore even if I try to login to Xorg session.
