[Bug 58171] Re: Connection to ICE-unix/.. socket times out so programs take minutes to start
I had the same problem on a different machine, an amd64 Gutsy 7.10. Could be bypassed like above, by symlinking the .ICE-unix/NUMBER from strace to .ICE-unix/CORRECTNUMBER. Symptoms included slow evince start, can't open menu in OpenOffice, OpenOffice crashing. The machine had been running long time with the same X session. Then I logged out, changed language and logged back in.

Session is started in the default way: I have hardy amd64 installed from live cd. I start my session by logging in from gdm's graphical login screen. I tried logging out and restarting X with alt-ctrl-backspace, but it did not fix the problem. I just installed this machine, so I don't know if it happens a lot. I have not yet developed a guaranteed way to trigger this problem or a guaranteed way to get rid of it.

[Bug 58171] Re: Connection to ICE-unix/.. socket times out so programs take minutes to start
This problem occurs to me on a freshly installed, updated Hardy on amd64. When it's happening, OpenOffice does not start and vim opens very slowly. Thus, it makes a desktop nearly unusable. ** Changed in: gnome-session (Ubuntu) Status: Fix Released = Confirmed -- Connection to ICE-unix/.. socket times out so programs take minutes to start https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/58171 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-session in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 58171] Re: Connection to ICE-unix/.. socket times out so programs take minutes to start
When this problem is happening:
- OpenOffice does not start
- vim is starts slowly
- It takes 7 seconds to open an xterm window
The socket in /tmp/.ICE-unix/ has a different number than the one
programs are looking for.
I time over 7 s when I start xterm and close the window as soon as it appears:
$ time xterm
Warning: Tried to connect to session manager, Could not open network socket
real0m7.374s
...
Vim starts slowly, strace mentions ICE-unix
$ strace vim newfile.txt
...
nanosleep({1, 0}, {1, 0}) = 0
socket(PF_FILE, SOCK_STREAM, 0) = 3
uname({sys=Linux, node=foobar, ...}) = 0
connect(3, {sa_family=AF_FILE, path=/tmp/.ICE-unix/6026}, 21) = -1 ENOENT (No
such file or directory)
close(3)
Indeed, this /tmp/.ICE-unix/6026 does not exist. Instead, a similarly named
socket with a different number is found:
$ ls -ld /tmp/.ICE-unix/ /tmp/.ICE-unix/*
drwxrwxrwt 2 root root 4096 2008-08-11 12:33 /tmp/.ICE-unix/
srwxrwxrwx 1 tero tero 0 2008-08-11 12:33 /tmp/.ICE-unix/6943
Don't know if this is related, but localhost and hostname are mapped to
different IP's in the loopback block.
$ cat /etc/hosts
...
127.0.0.1 localhost
127.0.1.1 foobar
...
Running Ubuntu 8.04.1 hardy. IPv6 is not disabled. Currently, DNS
resolution is quite slow, don't know if it is related. I have network-
manager 0.6.6-0ubuntu5, xserver-xorg 1:7.3+10ubuntu10.2, xterm

[Bug 58171] Re: Connection to ICE-unix/.. socket times out so programs take minutes to start
Problem can be bypassed by creating a symlink. From strace I can see that programs are looking for socket /tmp/.ICE- unix/6026. With 'ls', I can see that instead there is a socket /tmp /.ICE-unix/6943. So I can bypass the problem by creating a symlink: $ cd /tmp/.ICE-unix/ $ ln -s 6943 6026 $ ls -l total 0 lrwxrwxrwx 1 tee tee 4 2008-08-14 12:06 6026 - 6943 srwxrwxrwx 1 tee tee 0 2008-08-11 12:33 6943 After that, xterm opens immediately. $ xterm Warning: Tried to connect to session manager, Authentication Rejected, reason : MIT-MAGIC-COOKIE-1 authentication rejected Vim also opens without delay.

What should happen: computer should boot normally What actually happens: After boot, complete freeze on Starting Hardware abstraction layer hald in the boot splash screen. All previous things on screen show ok. The line is about 95% done. No keys do anything: caps lock, alt-ctrl-backspace, alt-ctrl-del, alt-ctrl-f1 (2,3,4...), mouse, quick power button click. Had to press power button for 10 s to shut down. 3004WTMi requires noapic irqpoll to boot, I checked that these options were still present in grub configuration.

The problem was probably caused by dist-upgrade, or not booting between upgrade and dist upgrade. I installed from scratch using Ubuntu Dapper Flight 6 i386 install CD, then ran sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get -y upgrade, rebooted, and gdm screen came up.

The yellow hoverbox shows if AC is plugged or not. If AC is unplugged, computer shuts down in less than half a minute. Battery level is still always 0% though. I assume that the shutdown is result of battery being in critical (5%) state according to mistaken 0% measurement. The power manager seems nice, I hope my machine will suspend-to-ram S3 some day too.
