[Bug 246969] Re: [Intrepid alpha1] gdmgreeter freezes in VMware Server 1.0.6
I am not really convinced this being a vmware bug. I have Vmware Workstation 5.0 running. When installing hardy heron (kernel 2.6 17 or 19) there is no issue, but after installing intrepid alpha 1 or 2 (kernel 2.6.26- ) I have problems with sound and mouse grabbing. So I think there are also some things wrong with the snd_pcsp module and kernel 2.6.26.

I'm quite sure you're correct about snd_pcsp module and kernel 2.6.26; The only reason why the title is 'gdmgreeter freezes in VMware Server 1.0.6' was because I couldn't pin point the bug at first, and that was my first guess.

I can also confirm that this is still happening for me when using VMWare Workstation v6 and Virtual Box 1.62. After I enter my username and password Intrepid hangs with the speaker making a noise. This is happening with both Alpha 1 and 2. The only way I could find a workaround was to install Hardy Heron, change the sources.list to point to Intrepid and dist-upgrade. Once I had done this, on the grub screen I press escape and choose to boot with the 2.6.24-19 kernel and this works fine. Not sure if this is a Kernel issue. -- [Intrepid alpha1] gdmgreeter freezes in VMware Server 1.0.6 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/246969 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gdm in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

Sorry I should have added that I have used both Windows XP Pro, Vista Home Premium, Vista Ultimate and Ubuntu Hardy Heron 8.04.1 as hosts for the VM with the same results in all of them with both VMWare Workstation 6 and Virtual Box 1.62, so I can't see it being a VMWare bug. -- [Intrepid alpha1] gdmgreeter freezes in VMware Server 1.0.6 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/246969 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gdm in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

I can confirm the workaround from mejogid. I had notice the noise from the pc speaker as well, but since I could not find the pcspkr module I was not able to disable it. Turns out this was the snd_pcsp module. No wonder I could not find it. I am logging in fine now on Intrepid Alpha 2 on Vmware Workstation 5.0.0. There must be a problem with the snd_pcsp in relation to vmware.

[Bug 246969] Re: [Intrepid alpha1] gdmgreeter freezes in VMware Server 1.0.6
I noticed that when this was occurring on VMWare Fusion (for OS X), there was a constant buzzing sound around the time when the login tone should happen - even if I had disabled the virtual sound card. After a bit of trial and error, I thought this may be coming from the system speaker, and it turns out unloading the module snd_pcsp prevents the noise *and* the freezing when logging in. It seems that this is two seperate bugs - Ubuntu using the system speaker to play sounds on, and VMWare locking up when this piece of virtual hardware is used for prolonged periods. The Ubuntu forums thread - http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=845844 - seems to deal with the first problem, although I can't find a corresponding launchpad bug, and VMWare probably need to be alerted of the second issue. -- [Intrepid alpha1] gdmgreeter freezes in VMware Server 1.0.6 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/246969 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gdm in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

Same for me here. However I use the following workaround to log in at all (this is with VMWare Workstation): 1. Click in the VMs Window and hit Ctrl+Alt+Shift+F2 2. Log in to the console 3. sudo apt-get install openssh-server 4. From the host: ssh -Y [EMAIL PROTECTED] 5. sudo gnome-control-center 6. Click on Login Window 7. Enable Remote Login 8. Restart the VM (sudo shutdown -r now) 9. Open another Logon Screen on the Host (Switch User) 10. Select XDMCP from the menu 11. Select the VMs IP and log in Voila, full screen logon to your Intrepid system. -- [Intrepid alpha1] gdmgreeter freezes in VMware Server 1.0.6 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/246969 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gdm in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

I haven't been able to confirm whether the bug I'm seeing is exactly the same because I'm not set up to where I can switch and grab a vt under vmware to run top on, but I think it probably is the same bug: after entering username and password, the vm locks up, and stops responding to network traffic. -- [Intrepid alpha1] gdmgreeter freezes in VMware Server 1.0.6 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/246969 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gdm in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

I think I've the same issue on the desktop live sessions as well as the installed system from alternate images.

I think I have the same problem. Vmware Workstation 5.5.0 on windows xp. Running Intrepid Alpha 1 with 2.6.26-3 kernel. Booting is ok, but when I want to login to GDM it stalls completly.
