After running gvfsd in debug mode from the console (DISPLAY=:0 /usr/lib/gvfsd -r) I found out that gvfsd could not get the right uid for my LDAP users. Googling a bit further I found out that installing the nscd (Name Service Caching Daemon) would solve that problem. And indeed it did!
So, all in all for Ubuntu 12.04 the solution is as follows: 1) Comment the lines in /etc/X11/Xsession.d/90qt-a11y gsettings-daemon 2) Install the nscd package -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/870874 Title: LDAP user with automounted nfs homedir cannot login To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/at-spi2-core/+bug/870874/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
