Package: gnome-desktop-environment Version: 1:2.28+7 Severity: normal Tags: squeeze
Vanilla install of squeeze, kept up-to-date with aptitude update, aptitude dist-upgrade. Latest update today. Installed Gnome d-e through aptitude install gnome-desktop-environment. For some reason I activated fuse, udev, udev-mtab, and ufw through Gnome's Service Settings facility (System -> Administration -> Services). Logging out immediately caused a hardlock of of computer at gdm. No functioning keyboard or mouse. A reboot will only result in a hardlocked gdm again. Debian's kernel 2.6.32-4-686 with the nouveau driver or 2.6.32-3-686 with the nv driver give the same sad result. The immediate solution is to reboot in safety mode, log in as root, and remove the 50fuse, 50udev, 50udev-mtab, and 50ufw items from /etc/rc2.d/ . One bug is that this misconfiguration can be done in the Service Settings, i.e. activating already running services (they are started in /etc/rcS.d/ per default) with a lockup as a result. Another bug is that the items (fuse, udev, etc. ) are not indicated as being active when opening the Service Settings for the first time. The tick box is un-ticked. -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.32-4-686 (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=en_US.utf8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages gnome-desktop-environment depends on: ii alacarte 0.13.1-1 easy GNOME menu editing tool ii brasero 2.30.1-1 CD/DVD burning application for GNO ii cheese 2.30.1-1 A tool to take pictures and videos ii deskbar-applet 2.30.1-1 universal search and navigation ba ii desktop-base 5.0.5 common files for the Debian Deskto ii dmz-cursor-theme 0.4.1 Style neutral, scalable cursor the ii ekiga 3.2.6-1 H.323 and SIP compatible VoIP clie ii empathy 2.28.2-3 High-level library and user-interf ii epiphany-browser [gnome-www- 2.29.3-1 Intuitive GNOME web browser ii evince 2.30.1-2 Document (postscript, pdf) viewer ii evolution 2.28.3-1+b1 groupware suite with mail client a ii evolution-data-server 2.28.3.1-1 evolution database backend server ii fast-user-switch-applet 2.24.0-4 Applet for the GNOME panel providi ii file-roller 2.30.1.1-1 an archive manager for GNOME ii gcalctool 5.30.1-1 GNOME desktop calculator ii gconf-editor 2.30.0-2 An editor for the GConf configurat ii gdm 2.20.10-3 GNOME Display Manager ii gksu 2.0.2-2+b1 graphical frontend to su ii gnome-about 2.30.0-2 The GNOME about box ii gnome-backgrounds 2.30.0-1 a set of backgrounds packaged with ii gnome-bluetooth 2.30.0-1 GNOME Bluetooth tools ii gnome-core 1:2.28+7 The GNOME Desktop Environment -- e ii gnome-disk-utility 2.30.1-1 manage and configure disk drives a ii gnome-keyring 2.30.1-2 GNOME keyring services (daemon and ii gnome-media 2.30.0-1 GNOME media utilities ii gnome-netstatus-applet 2.28.1-1 Network status applet for GNOME ii gnome-nettool 2.30.0-1 network information tool for GNOME ii gnome-screensaver 2.30.0-1 GNOME screen saver and locker ii gnome-system-monitor 2.28.1-1 Process viewer and system resource ii gnome-system-tools 2.30.1-2 Cross-platform configuration utili ii gnome-themes 2.30.1-1 official themes for the GNOME desk ii gnome-user-guide 2.30.1-1 GNOME user's guide ii gnome-user-share 2.30.0-1 User level public file sharing via ii gnome-utils 2.30.0-1 GNOME desktop utilities ii gstreamer0.10-alsa 0.10.29-1 GStreamer plugin for ALSA ii gstreamer0.10-plugins-base 0.10.29-1 GStreamer plugins from the "base" ii gstreamer0.10-plugins-good 0.10.22-1 GStreamer plugins from the "good" ii gstreamer0.10-tools 0.10.29-1 Tools for use with GStreamer ii gtk2-engines 1:2.20.1-1 theme engines for GTK+ 2.x ii gucharmap 1:2.30.1-1 Unicode character picker and font ii gvfs-backends 1.6.1-1 userspace virtual filesystem - bac ii gvfs-bin 1.6.1-1 userspace virtual filesystem - bin ii hamster-applet 2.30.1-1 time tracking applet for GNOME ii iceweasel [gnome-www-browser 3.5.9-3 Web browser based on Firefox ii libgnome2-perl 1.042-2 Perl interface to the GNOME librar ii policykit-1-gnome 0.96-2 GNOME authentication agent for Pol ii seahorse 2.30.1-2 GNOME front end for GnuPG ii seahorse-plugins 2.30.1-2 seahorse plugins and utilities for ii sound-juicer 2.28.2-1 GNOME CD Ripper ii totem 2.30.1-2 A simple media player for the GNOM ii totem-plugins 2.30.1-2 Plugins for the Totem media player ii vinagre 2.30.1-1 remote desktop client for the GNOM ii vino 2.28.2-1 VNC server for GNOME ii xdg-user-dirs 0.12-1 tool to manage well known user dir ii zenity 2.30.0-1 Display graphical dialog boxes fro Versions of packages gnome-desktop-environment recommends: ii gnome-accessibility 1:2.28+7 The GNOME desktop environment -- a ii gnome-games 1:2.30.1-1 games for the GNOME desktop Versions of packages gnome-desktop-environment suggests: pn gnome-dbg <none> (no description available) -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
