Hi, no crash of the gdm gdb session occurs this way, I will try instead to run gedit under gdb and see if this changes anything. Probably not, as there is no pipe between the two different settings and I cannot open a new xterm or gnome-terminal unfortunately.
Below is the terminal output after <Ctrl+C>, and the log file is attached: r...@thomas-laptop:/home/thomas# gdb gdm 2>&1 | tee gdb-gdm-root.log GNU gdb 6.8-debian Copyright (C) 2008 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
