Package: gdm Version: 2.20.7-4 Severity: grave Justification: renders package unusable
Today I did an apt-get update and apt-get upgrade which appeared to hang. I rebooted and I can login via ssh but not via the console. It's a Sun with ILOM and if the console is redirected one gets the same broken result. The initial login screen does appear and seems to accept the username and password but then one can get nothing else. Trying all the function keys revealed that the print screen button could elicit a response. I also note an error: Jan 29 12:24:19 charlotte gdm[5066]: PAM unable to dlopen(/lib/security/pam_gnome_keyring.so): /lib/security/pam_gnome_keyring.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory but I think this may have been pre-existing. I hope I am right this is a gdm bug as I usually operate via ssh not GUIs ps -ef indicates jcjb 7607 7581 0 13:13 ? 00:00:00 x-window-manager jcjb 7653 7607 0 13:13 ? 00:00:00 /usr/bin/ssh-agent /usr/bin/dbus-launch --exit-with-session x-window-manager jcjb 7656 1 0 13:13 ? 00:00:00 /usr/bin/dbus-launch --exit-with-session x-window-manager jcjb 7657 1 0 13:13 ? 00:00:00 /usr/bin/dbus-daemon --fork --print-pid 6 --print-address 9 --session jcjb 7659 1 0 13:13 ? 00:00:00 /usr/lib/libgconf2-4/gconfd-2 6 -- System Information: Debian Release: 5.0 APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.26-1-amd64 (SMP w/8 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_GB.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages gdm depends on: ii adduser 3.110 add and remove users and groups ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.5.24 Debian configuration management sy ii gksu 2.0.0-6 graphical frontend to su ii gnome-terminal [x-term 2.22.3-3 The GNOME 2 terminal emulator appl ii konsole [x-terminal-em 4:3.5.9.dfsg.1-6 X terminal emulator for KDE ii libart-2.0-2 2.3.20-2 Library of functions for 2D graphi ii libatk1.0-0 1.22.0-1 The ATK accessibility toolkit ii libattr1 1:2.4.43-1 Extended attribute shared library ii libc6 2.7-18 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libcairo2 1.6.4-7 The Cairo 2D vector graphics libra ii libdbus-1-3 1.2.1-5 simple interprocess messaging syst ii libdbus-glib-1-2 0.76-1 simple interprocess messaging syst ii libdmx1 1:1.0.2-3 X11 Distributed Multihead extensio ii libfontconfig1 2.6.0-3 generic font configuration library ii libfreetype6 2.3.7-2 FreeType 2 font engine, shared lib ii libglade2-0 1:2.6.2-1 library to load .glade files at ru ii libglib2.0-0 2.16.6-1 The GLib library of C routines ii libgnomecanvas2-0 2.20.1.1-1 A powerful object-oriented display ii libgtk2.0-0 2.12.11-4 The GTK+ graphical user interface ii libpam-modules 1.0.1-5 Pluggable Authentication Modules f ii libpam-runtime 1.0.1-5 Runtime support for the PAM librar ii libpam0g 1.0.1-5 Pluggable Authentication Modules l ii libpango1.0-0 1.20.5-3 Layout and rendering of internatio ii librsvg2-2 2.22.2-2lenny1 SAX-based renderer library for SVG ii librsvg2-common 2.22.2-2lenny1 SAX-based renderer library for SVG ii libselinux1 2.0.65-5 SELinux shared libraries ii libwrap0 7.6.q-16 Wietse Venema's TCP wrappers libra ii libx11-6 2:1.1.5-2 X11 client-side library ii libxau6 1:1.0.3-3 X11 authorisation library ii libxdmcp6 1:1.0.2-3 X11 Display Manager Control Protoc ii libxext6 2:1.0.4-1 X11 miscellaneous extension librar ii libxi6 2:1.1.4-1 X11 Input extension library ii libxinerama1 2:1.0.3-2 X11 Xinerama extension library ii libxml2 2.6.32.dfsg-5 GNOME XML library ii lsb-base 3.2-20 Linux Standard Base 3.2 init scrip ii metacity [x-window-man 1:2.22.0-2 A lightweight GTK2 based Window Ma ii twm [x-window-manager] 1:1.0.4-2 Tab window manager ii xterm [x-terminal-emul 235-2 X terminal emulator ii zlib1g 1:1.2.3.3.dfsg-12 compression library - runtime Versions of packages gdm recommends: pn gdm-themes <none> (no description available) ii whiptail 0.52.2-11.3 Displays user-friendly dialog boxe pn xserver-xephyr | xnest <none> (no description available) ii xserver-xorg 1:7.3+18 the X.Org X server ii zenity 2.22.1-2 Display graphical dialog boxes fro Versions of packages gdm suggests: pn libpam-gnome-keyring <none> (no description available) ii locales 2.7-18 GNU C Library: National Language ( ii pm-utils 1.1.2.4-1 utilities and scripts for power ma -- debconf information: gdm/daemon_name: /usr/bin/gdm * shared/default-x-display-manager: gdm -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-rc-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
