Package: gdm3 Version: 3.8.4-6 Severity: grave gdm3 does not work in Gnome Flashback mode, this is the fourth computer showing the problem, forcing me to switch to xfce :( After logging in I have icewaesel present in all workspaces, and iconizing it fails, the screen is filled with lines indicating a movement of the full-screen icewasel to iconized status, but the window stays (showing the transition which never completes.
The problem is related to systemd, see below, row 4! I don't use systemd for boot (and never will unless forced). Converting this box to xfce too after submitting this bug report. >From /var/log/messages: Jan 27 14:11:46 s1499 gdm-simple-slave[2750]: Failed to remove slave program access to the display.
