Public bug reported: Binary package hint: gdm
I just upgraded to 9.04 from 8.10. Everything appeared to go fine, but when I boot up, before it gets to the login screen, I get a blue background (looks like a xubuntu theme background which is what I was running prior to the upgrade) and a "busy" cursor that make it appear as though something is causing processing over and over again. When I dig into the log files, indeed, that is what I find. For example: #/var/log/syslog ... Apr 29 09:50:02 sick-laptop gdm[5425]: WARNING: Couldn't authenticate user Apr 29 09:50:33 sick-laptop last message repeated 25 times #/var/log/auth.log ... Apr 29 09:50:16 sick-laptop gdm[5425]: pam_nologin(gdm:auth): cannot determine username Apr 29 09:50:47 sick-laptop last message repeated 27 times Apr 29 09:51:49 sick-laptop last message repeated 51 times #/var/log/gdm/:0.log ... (==) Log file: "/var/log/Xorg.0.log", Time: Wed Apr 29 09:57:04 2009 (==) Using config file: "/etc/X11/xorg.conf" f000:4b9a: 01 ILLEGAL EXTENDED X86 OPCODE! So it appears as though gdm is trying to auto-login (even though auto- login should be disabled according to the configuration files). I am using gdm 2.20.10 (package 2.20.10-0ubuntu2) I have tried several things to try to fix this but so far have not been able to get to my desktop.
