Will increasing it to 60 increase start-up time?

No.
That value just tells gdm how long to wait for X to start up before
deciding that X has hung, to kill it and try starting it again. So my
guess is that if the machine is slow:
1. X takes longer to start than GdmXserverTimeout allows, because other
background processes started during boot are

Hi,
Can you try extending GdmXserverTimeout to see if that helps? Maybe try
setting it to 20 or 30?

Yes, value 30 probably helped.
Maybe that's because the computer experiencing troubles has integrated SiS

Hello,
I'm having the same issue here on an Jaunty installation. The autologin feature

Maybe so.
When I emailed earlier that adding sleep 10 to my /etc/init.d/gdm

i've had the same issue (jaunty xubuntu fresh installation with intel video

it seems like paul's solution:
sudo update-rc.d -f gdm remove
sudo update-rc.d gdm defaults
works perfect.
later after playing with gdm and configuration autologin stopped working again
and this helped
But in the spirit of Philipp's changes, I added sleep 10; to the start
section of /etc/init.d/gdm, and that's gotten it working correctly for
three boots in a row. That's progress for me. NoOp, can you give that a
try?

hell yeah!! I discovered what couses the problem: preload! remove it

Where do you suggest I look? It's true that back in Ibex I did use
Ibex's control panel to set up autologin, but given the contents of

be other than gdm.
