Package: gdm3 Version: 3.14.1-7 Severity: serious This occurred on a jessie system using the default GNOME 3 desktop.
My laptop screen had been locked for a while. I typed the password and nothing happened. After a few seconds, the screen went blank again. Looking at journalctl I observed: gdm-session-worker[23803]: <5>AccountsService: Failed to monitor logind session changes: Too many open files I looked in Google and I came across some instructions at https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1081004 and I tried them: # loginctl list-sessions SESSION UID USER SEAT 150 1000 daniel seat0 352 1000 daniel 2 sessions listed. # loginctl show-session 150 Id=150 Name=daniel Timestamp=Fri 2015-07-31 08:16:35 CEST TimestampMonotonic=58211655247 VTNr=7 Display=:0 Remote=no Service=gdm-password Scope=session-150.scope Leader=9094 Audit=150 Type=x11 Class=user Active=yes State=active IdleHint=yes IdleSinceHint=1438349828896720 IdleSinceHintMonotonic=68154456351 # loginctl unlock-session 150 The unlock-session command unlocked the screensaver and I was able to see the desktop again. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-rc-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
