Tried going back to S13 for gdmand the old problem came back, long delays before the desktop comes up and gdmsetup can't run. Spash screen reverts to default as well. Back to S21 and everything is normal. Something between S13 and S20 has to run before GDM, and why is there no socket when

maybe, we are not going to change the package without any rationnal just to workaround a problem which happened to one people, could be due to something on your configuration. If you are happy with the workaround we can close the bug, otherwise trying what need to be started before gdm would be a

Well I am happy with the workaround but it bugs me why the problem only seemed to affect 3 or 4 people. Looking at the init scripts for Dapper and Edgy, I did notice that dbus runs from an s20 script in Edgy, while it is s12 in Dapper. GDM runs with s13 in both cases ( except as I changed it to

Yes, I had noticed that. Funny thing is, I'm not running (or have installed) nvidia-glx, so that's purely redundant. I'm using the nv driver because of the security vuln that appeared some days ago and because frankly I've got no use for the 3d driver yet. Still, it'd be a pretty big thing to

2006-10-24 Thread Adriano Varoli Piazza
The problem here is Ubuntu devs are keen on starting GDM as soon as possible, to give the user the illusion of a faster bootup (just like Windows, I might add), while things keep loading in the background. Evidently there's a balance to be struck and we got caught in the ugly side of it. It's a

I subscribe the above, same results here after I booted up today (I'd noticed it before, but didn't worry about it). Plus, in my case the gdm screen has reverted to the default Flowers theme. I see no /tmp/.gdm_socket file either (after logging in at least). -- Cannot run gdmsetup

2006-10-23 Thread Adriano Varoli Piazza
After the comments in the upstream bug, this seems to be caused because GDM is started too early by init, so a possible solution is going to /etc/rc2.d/ and changing S13gdm to, say, S21gdm . It's worth a try, so I'll post more about it in a reboot. -- Cannot run gdmsetup

My mistake, I'd mystyped s21gdm instead of S21gdm. It now works (though it seems like it takes more to open gdm, probably because it does). Maybe some other initscript can be moved after it? I attach my (modified) setup for /etc/rc2.d as a text file. ** Attachment added: modified setup for rc2.d
