Title:
GDM logs out after some minutes
I see the exact same symptoms in Oneiric x64:
- it happens once every boot, after a few minutes;
- it happens systematically right when I press the Enter key (not the first
time, don't know if it is always at the N-th time);
- tty1 gets lots of crap (not always the same characters, but always

Boy, how ugly things could get.
I was wrong about X not crashing. It indeed crashes once.
I have here a custom built from latest git trees x server, and it is of course

So it turns out that plymouth (or whatever the name is) makes X crash, and
ubuntu xserver carries a patch (
Actually this workaround doesn't work on my desktop for some strange reason.
X starts on vt1, of course hangs due to fight with plymouth,
The /var/run/gdm/firstserver.stamp exists, and I tested that x doesn't crash
first time or so.
Removing it makes X start on vt7, on next boot everything is bac

Martin, you are right, it's not a time issue and I was also able to
consistently reproduce it when hitting the number '2' key (or @ key as
described in your bug) on my keyboard.

Then I would suggest (out of the scope of this bug) to reserve a key
combination (perhaps there already is one?) that takes you "back to the
last X tty"; this would eliminate the need for guessing the tty.

On one of my pc's I get a random login, on this IBM ThinkCentre with
Intel i845 I get a "black screen of death" where nothing works except
power off.
sudo edit /etc/default/grub
remove:
splash
sudo update-grub
then reboot fixed it I think because it's been running for hours. See
my bug 396843

I'm going to upload a really nasty workaround, but eventually it would
be much better if we used the same dynamic schema for tty allocation
everywhere.
Right now, getty is hardcoded at tty1 to 6, while X dynamically
determines the next free terminal. As this bug shows, this represents a
race condi

I know support requests do not belong to bug reports but for the sake of
keeping relevant
either,
- "sudo stop tty1" after logging into your gnome session
or,
- boot kernel without the splash option to stop it using usplash
both methods work on this computer

Sorry, in comment 17 I was lying. Of course gdm's init script stops
usplash, but that's not actually the problem here.
The problem is that gdm's init script sleeps for 5 seconds _if_ usplash
was running, to avoid having console output until X starts. These 5
seconds are enough to put the starting

gdm's init script doesn't shutdown splash, it still assumes that gdm is
on a different terminal than vt1 and switches vt (which brings down
usplash).
I discussed that with Scott, right now we don't yet have the right
infrastructure to let gdm run on vt1. I'll move it back to 7 by default.

i'm confused, init.d/gdm checks for splash and brings it down, but we

"sudo stop tty1" certainly cures the problem here.
is the problem that usplash has control of tty7 when gdm tries to start and so
forces it onto tty1 instead?

So either we drop /etc/event.d/tty1 completely, or gdm disables it
