I tried installing the hardy-proposed update to GDM https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gdm/+bug/229866 but the problem remains. The only change is that with the XDMCP crash, the text is no longer displayed, it still hangs, but now at the usual light brown screen with the mouse pointer visible.
About the logs, sorry, didn't realise I had to enable debugging. I'm attaching excerpts from my logs with debugging enabled. Syslog on logoutLogin is for the text thats appearing between gnome and greeter. Syslog on logoutXDMCPhang is for the hang that happens with XDMCP from the greeter. ** Attachment added: "syslog on logoutLogin" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/14512868/syslog%20on%20logoutLogin -- Hangs at running local boot scripts on shutdown and XDMCP login https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/228324 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
