You are correct that uninstalling `im-config` and reverting `99x11-common_start` to its original `exec $STARTUP`. But that just hides the issue by removing the package containing the bug, and in particular these lines in `70im-config_launch`: ``` if [ -x "$IMLAUNCH" ]; then STARTUP="$IMLAUNCH

I was able to fix this by changing ``` exec $STARTUP ``` to ``` $STARTUP ``` Interestingly, this doesn't leave a shell process running -- it leaves `gdm-x-session` running. So perhaps that is emulating a shell somehow, but gets the unquoting wrong for `exec`? -- You received this bug notific
