Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: gdm
I'm running with an nvidia card and 2 monitors using xinerama. After
the update to gdm it just crashes constantly saying "the launcher
crashed; attempting to use another one" or something like that. It
will just do this enlessly until I switch to a command line and stop
gdm.
>From the command-line I can "startx" with no problems.
I found a forum entry that had me change the gdm.conf Greeter line to:
Greeter=/usr/lib/gdm/gdmlogin
Now everything works again. It's ugly, but at least functional.
I looked through all the gdm logs I could and they say nothing different
than they did days ago (that's the only place I could think to find a
bug trace)...
