After testing, this bug actually happens to users having an encrypted
/home folder and for those having an unencrypted /home folder.

** Summary changed:

- gnome-session isn't started automatically for users using encrypted /home 
folder
+ gnome-session doesn't always start if using encrypted swap

** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: gnome-session
  
- For some reason gnome-session can't be loaded by gdm for users who's
- /home folder is encrypted. I have to use the xtern session from gdm to
- then start gnome-session manually (the attached screenshot shows the
- first messages given by the gnomoe-session command). This this issue
- started after Thursday's updates (gdm, xsplash ...). The gnome-session
- starts normally when a user (without an encrypted /home folder) logs in.
