Just experienced the problem again. I was booted into tty. I then did
sudo gdm, but that dit not work: failed to acquire org.gnome.displaymanager could not acquire name; bailing out. I then did sudo lightdm and that DID work. I attach syslog. I would appreciate your expertiece and help in fixing this. ** Attachment added: "syslog after problem, but working lightdm" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gdm/+bug/1110580/+attachment/3516006/+files/syslog -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gdm in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1110580 Title: no gdm at start up. only tty (not really working either) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gdm/+bug/1110580/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
