This happens to me often: 1. I boot the machine, log in 2. after some time I press Ctrl+Alt+Backspace to log out quickly 3. I get a gdm login screen and log in again 4. I get a blank desktop and nothing happens.
If I use ps at point 3, I see a number of processes left over from my previous session: - bonobo-activation-server - gconfd - evolution-data-server - several applets (netspeed, battstat, gweather, mixer, multiload, cpufreq) - esd I can only log into gdm after logging into a text console and killing these processes manually. neuromancer, what did you mean by "restarting"? Restarting X, or rebooting the computer? If rebooting, then what I see is a different bug. -- Ubuntu 6.06 (amd64), users can't login after restart. https://launchpad.net/bugs/49594 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
