Fix: If you search your journalctl output and find an event like this: Jul 07 20:45:20 ubuntu dbus-daemon[1064]: [system] Activating via systemd: service name='org.freedesktop.ColorManager' unit='colord.service' requested by ':1.168' (uid=1000 pid=23634 comm="/usr/lib/gnome-settings-daemon/gsd-color " label="unconfined")
and the timestamp coincides with the second (successful) login (look for "GNOME Shell started" if you are using Gnome), and the first (failed) login doesn't have a matching event like the above, then the following might help: # copy /lib/systemd/system/graphical.target to /etc/systemd/system/ # edit /etc/systemd/system/graphical.target, so that when you diff it against the original, you get something like this: $ diff /lib/systemd/system/graphical.target /etc/systemd/system/graphical.target 14c14 < Wants=display-manager.service --- > Wants=display-manager.service colord.service 16c16 < After=multi-user.target rescue.service rescue.target display-manager.service --- > After=multi-user.target rescue.service rescue.target display-manager.service > colord.service # next time you reboot the issue should be gone. Explanation: gsd-color is invoked by org.gnome.SettingsDaemon.Color.desktop. The event above is logged presumably when gsd-color requests the dbus service provided by colord.service. One can reasonably guess a failed login happens when gsd-color makes the request but colord hasn't yet started, so it fails and when gnome shell gets tired waiting, it kills itself. So we add colord as a dependency to be run prior to graphical.target. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1764417 Title: Unrecoverable failure in required component org.gnome.SettingsDaemon.Color.desktop To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-settings-daemon/+bug/1764417/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
