I'm also bitten by this bug - after an upgrade to Karmic the ~/.xsession script isn't read anymore and my htpc user is auto-logged in straight into GNOME.
Tried to make files in /usr/share/xsessions that launched /etc/gdm/Xsession (or "/etc/gdm/Xsession custom") and also updated my ~/.dmrc to refer to the new session, but it still didn't work and I was logged straight into GNOME (and for some reason ~/.dmrc was reset to the "default" session). My (admittedly dirty) solution was: cp ~/.xsession /etc/gdm/Xsession chmod a+x /etc/gdm/Xsession Tore -- The new gdm doesn't give an option to use .xsession https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/398300 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
