This bug affects my multiseat system with Karmic. I am using just gdm and due to the latest gdm doesn't support multiseat I had to downgrade to gdm 2.20. When my X is starting, there are some error messages in the xorg.log which do not affect any functionality as far as I can say
(II) config/hal: Adding input device Logitech 2.4GHz Cordless Desktop (EE) config/hal: NewInputDeviceRequest failed (8) (II) config/hal: Adding input device UVC Camera (046d:0990) (EE) config/hal: NewInputDeviceRequest failed (8) (II) config/hal: Adding input device Logitech 2.4GHz Cordless Desktop (EE) config/hal: NewInputDeviceRequest failed (8) (II) config/hal: Adding input device Power Button (EE) config/hal: NewInputDeviceRequest failed (8) (II) config/hal: Adding input device Microsoft Microsoft Wireless Optical DesktopĀ® 1.00 (EE) config/hal: NewInputDeviceRequest failed (8) (II) config/hal: Adding input device Microsoft Microsoft Wireless Optical DesktopĀ® 1.00 (EE) config/hal: NewInputDeviceRequest failed (8) (II) config/hal: Adding input device Logitech 2.4GHz Cordless Desktop (EE) config/hal: NewInputDeviceRequest failed (8) (II) config/hal: Adding input device Sleep Button (EE) config/hal: NewInputDeviceRequest failed (8) (II) config/hal: Adding input device Logitech 2.4GHz Cordless Desktop (EE) config/hal: NewInputDeviceRequest failed (8) (II) config/hal: Adding input device Power Button (EE) config/hal: NewInputDeviceRequest failed (8) (II) config/hal: Adding input device Macintosh mouse button emulation (EE) config/hal: NewInputDeviceRequest failed (8) The failsage-X, particulary the failsafeXInit script detects these messages it attempts to start the failsafe X even though the original X session is working just fine. Then I get problem that the failsafe X runs into conflict with the original X session and I get message There already appears to be an X server running on display :0..... Since I cannot figure out how to get rid of the error messages in my xorg log I have to disable failsafe X as described in comment #32. -- Since failsafe-x was enabled in karmic it starts if gdm is disabled and kdm is used.
