I did these things and now it works: - apt get reinstall gdm - apt-get update; apt-get upgrade (got the very latest version of X) - Commented out the last line in /etc/profile that looked like this: [[ -f "/etc/autopackage/paths-bash" ]] && . "/etc/autopackage/paths-bash" (I have no idea what business autopackage had in putting that line there, but it did produce an error-message when I ran "startx" on the terminal. Arrgh.) - Installed the latest CVS-drivers for my Wacom pad (from linuxwacom.sourceforge.net) - rmmod wacom and modprobe wacom - Restarted gdm
I guess this bug can be closed now. Perhaps the latest update of X fixed it, I don't know. I'll comment here if the problem should appear again. -- Can't log in wihout failsafe terminal https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/185000 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
