You have been subscribed to a public bug: Gdm crashed during login, as soon as the password prompt appeared. Recently I have updated some packages.
I found a "signal 11" in Xorg.0.log.old, and I saved the file into Xorg.0.log.old.bak (which I'm going to attach): > Backtrace: > 0: /usr/bin/X (xorg_backtrace+0x3b) [0x80e937b] > 1: /usr/bin/X (0x8048000+0x61c7d) [0x80a9c7d] > 2: (vdso) (__kernel_rt_sigreturn+0x0) [0x76b410] > Segmentation fault at address (nil) > Caught signal 11 (Segmentation fault). Server aborting I solved removing /etc/X11/xorg.conf, but I need it in order to enable glx. I know that i shouldn't use xorg.conf (isn't it deprecated?), but I'm not expert, and programs like nvidia-xconfig automatically creates it...
