It looks like an X issue as I was able to reproduce the issue with gdm 3.4 (I was just worried I may have to pull in lots of dependencies). I just have to enter recovery mode, then just exit it (earlier I was starting gdm3 before I exit from recovery mode). It could be something related to order or services started too. -- പ്രവീണ് അരിമ്പ്രത്തൊടിയില് You have to keep reminding your government that you don't get your rights from them; you give them permission to rule, only so long as they follow the rules: laws and constitution. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-rc-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
