Hmm. Somehow I managed to miss all the X errors :-). I'm not sure about your logic though. The logfile seems to contain output for 3 different runs of the X server. If you're right, we are interested in the last two runs. But *all* of them end in this same X error.
The *difference* between the last two runs is the error from kdmgreet in the second run: kdmgreet: Fatal IO error: client killed error setting MTRR (base = 0xd0000000, size = 0x10000000, type = 1) Invalid argument (22) ddxSigGiveUp: Closing log Surely that kdmgreet error is what you would expect to happen just after ctrl+alt+backspace. So it's not restarting X? The other alternative is that kdmgreet is silent in response to ctrl+alt+backspace, but when it tried to restart X, something *other* than the MTRR error went wrong, which X did not log an error for, and kdmgreet then died. Also, as far as I know it's not a fatal error to fail to setup an MTRR. It just slows things down :-). So I think the MTRR error is unlikely to be related to a crash. Finally, X crashes are normally a bit spectacular - you at least see the screen flicker or something. I didn't see anything like that, it *looks* as if X just dies and is not restarted. -- kde4 KDM does not restart X when killed with ctrl+alt+backspace https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/315819 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
