I also have these problems with nfs-mounted /home on Lucid. Sometimes GDM starts and lets me log in before /home is mounted, which leads to what amounts to a crash.
I made a partial workaround by hacking /etc/init/gdm.conf to make GDM wait on /home being mounted. This is an improvement but not a fix. Sometimes I'm left looking at a text screen for a minute or two before /home mounts and GDM starts; other times the wait is long and I have to log in, gain root, manually issue 'mount /home', and manually restart GDM. All this works perfectly in Karmic; the problem is new to Lucid. So can I just copy over Karmic's /etc/init directory to the Lucid install and have a working system? -- NFS mounts at boot time prevent boot or print spurious errors https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/504224 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
