another bunch of tests. Right after boot I tried a normal gnome session login. The session did not start at all (screen went blank and the gdm login screen reappeared). psax_after-gnome-session-autologout is the "ps -ax" after this. .xsession-errors_gnome-session-autologout is taken at this point. I started a gnome session in the same way and this time I got an apparently good screen (panels with applets, icons, ...) but absolutely non-functional (not even refresh after vt switch); only the mouse pointer was working. I killed the session with "sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop". psax_after-gdm_stop is the "ps -ax" at this point. notice a lot of zombies and some strangely duplicated tasks. I tried to start a gnome session once more (after a "sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start", obviously) and this time I got the "Your session..." error message. psax_after-gdm_start_and_login_with_error is the "ps -ax" at this point. .xsession-errors is taken at this point. I then rebooted and used the terminal-login+manual-gnome-session to get to a somewhat working status and write this. This status is *not* fully functional and I see in the terminal whwe I started gnome-session things like:
(firefox:3902): GnomeUI-WARNING **: While connecting to session manager: Could not open network socket. ** (update-notifier:3837): DEBUG: /usr/lib/update-notifier/apt-check returned 0 (security: 0) ** (update-notifier:3837): DEBUG: crashreport_check ** (gnome-terminal:4011): WARNING **: Failed to connect to the session manager: Could not open network socket Completely reinstalling this Laptop is (unfortunately) not an option. I will try to install KDE and see if that works better (I do not like KDE, but...). All this started when I upgraded to Jaunty. I might have done a ad error doing so. ** Attachment added: "new.tar.gz" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/26424339/new.tar.gz -- gnome-session not starting after jaunty upgrrade https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/371533 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
