my equipment intel 2.6 nvidia fx5200 asus p4p800 1G mem gutsy and other [K]Ubunus OS's on same machine work fine all console windows are accessable so you can kill gdm and all x-session stuff killed gdm and all X related procs started X executed gnome-session things work this way but logout brings me back to identical situation X, gdm, gnome-session all are running fine but no gnome desktop To test further I did the following moved /usr/bin/gnome-session to /usr/bin/orig.gnome-session wrote a shell containing the line strace /usr/bin/orig.gnome-session killed all X and gdm stuff restarted gdm logged in again with my little one line shell in the middle of gdm and gnome-session and things work perfectly in my old Unix coding days we referred to this type of behavior as a 'race condition' maybe that is what we have here -- gdm hangs after login in gutsy https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/157622 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
