why do you reopen the gdm task if that's a video driver issue? closing the bug ** Changed in: gdm (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete = Invalid -- [gutsy] Two instances of gdm running after boot https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/136329 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I believe this is a problem with the ATI proprietary driver. I was having the same issue. I disabled the ATI driver and now only one instance of gdm is spanwed.

This is being discused here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=538560 I think that we just find it strange to have 2 instances of the gdm process. Not really know wheter it's a bug or not.

[Bug 136329] Re: [gutsy] Two instances of gdm running after boot
gdm uses multi processus, why do you consider that as a bug? Another user has explained me that /etc/init.d/gdm is written so that both a daemon and itself are up and running so the first two lines in top don't really surprise me (I admit I haven't looked at the boot script, though). In any case,having a single-processor single-core Pentium-M 735 I find it strange having two /usr/bin/X lines spawning at tty7 (please, tell me if I'm using wrong terminology), even more so since a Pentium4 HT (enabled) PC I have running Debian Testing only shows one /usr/bin/X. Basically this is as hexion said, I just found it weird, and if this is not a bug but a feature that let's say benefits multi-core users, we're all OK with it. -- [gutsy] Two instances of gdm running after boot https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/136329 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I wanted to add that I have only one screen on my xorg.conf (I am attaching it too). My system is a Dell Inspiron 8600c laptop with no external monitors attached. My xserver-xorg-core is 2:1.3.0.0.dfsg- 12ubuntu3 a version by Bryce Harrington with fixes backported from 1.3.99. This happens with both fglrx and the free ati driver.
