Bug#606773: Acknowledgement (Gnome Log-in Screen)
Hi Josselin, There is an executable /usr/bin/gnome-session dated 24feb2010 size 187.7kb. I did a dpkg search for gnome-session and it only turned up gnome-session-bin and gnome-session-common. I ran Synaptic Package Manager and it showed:- gnome-session NOT INSTALLED avail. 2.30.2-3 gnome-session-bin inst. 2.28.0-6 avail. 2.30.2-3 gnome-session-common inst. 2.28.0-6 avail. 2.30.2-3 So, I can only ASSUME that at some point Synaptic decided to remove the gnome-session package but leave the binary behind. As I can't see it's history list, as I'm running in failsafe mode, I can't tell at what point this occurred. Is this the information you require??

Bug#606773: Gnome Log-in Screen
Package: gnome Output of uname -a Linux roblaptop 2.6.32-3-686 #1 SMP Thu Feb 25 06:14:20 UTC 2010 i686 GNU/Linux The log-in screen appears, I enter my user name and then my password, and all that happens is a pale blue screen and zilch. No sound of the hard drive reading anything -- just total silence. I'm able to gain access by the failsafe methods. I did some upgrades over the last two days. Firstly I upgraded my jdk and when I used my laptop again, the sound with Skype ceased to work (and possibly the video). Running lsusb show everything connected as normal. So today, I upgraded packages with alsa, pulseaudio, etc. hoping it would fix my problem and Synaptic also marked some gnome packages for upgrade. 190 packages were downloaded. When I restarted, I couldn't log in. In failsafe mode I can access Synaptic but the File -- History tab is greyed out, so I can't tell which packages to re-load with older versions. I can't find anything pointing to where on the hard drive Synaptic keeps this file. My sources.list file is as follows:- deb http://security.debian.org/ lenny/updates main contrib non-free deb-src http://security.debian.org/ lenny/updates main contrib deb http://ftp.br.debian.org/debian/ testing main contrib non-free # deb http://ftp.br.debian.org/debian/ lenny main contrib non-free # deb http://security.debian.org/ etch/updates main contrib non-free # deb-src http://security.debian.org/ etch/updates main contrib # deb http://ftp.au.debian.org/debian/ testing main contrib non-free # deb http://192.168.0.1/debian/ snapshot/ I have tried dpkg --configure -a and it displays nothing. I also tried apt-get -f install and it told me there was nothing to install. I believe I need to go back to an older version of a package that I assume is related in some way with gnome. How do I find out which package?? I want my system back. Regards, Rob -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?
