Status in xorg package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Status in xorg package in Debian: New Bug description: Binary package hint: xorg I recently both got an upgrade for Xorg and went to KDE 4.6 (via the PPA), so I don't know who caused this message to appear. But now everytime I logon I get an xmessage telling me "Xsession: unable to launch "" X session --- "" not found; falling back to default session." This is from /etc/X11/Xsession.d/20x11-common_process-args but I don't know where the session name comes from. Anyway, I think an empty session name should be special cased with something like the following (untested) patch: --- 20x11-common_process-args.orig 2010-03-02 17:33:01.000000000 +0100 +++ 20x11-common_process-args 2011-01-30 13:57:18.073443001 +0100 @@ -40,7 +40,7 @@ fi fi ;; - default) + default|"") # Default behavior was requested. ;; *) Apart from that it would be nice if that message gave me a hint on how to fix this.
