I am using Edgy on a Compaq V2402 laptop (ATi Radeon Xpress 200M with either the Ubuntu repository fglrx driver, a hand-rolled fglrx driver 2.0.6234 / 8.32.5 and a couple of older versions, the radeon or vesa driver).
I get the greeter "appears to be crashing" message with the functioning fall-back greeter. This is irrespective of whether I have cold started up, rebooted, logged out, or restarted X with Ctrl+Alt+Backspace. I believe there might be cause to investigate this further, and may not necessarily be a X or driver problem. I will attach relevant bits of /var/log/gdm/:0.log and /var/log/Xorg.0.log from my laptop shortly (later tonight or tomorrow!) but there is mention of (EE) AIGLX error: dlsym for __driCreateNewScreen_20050727 failed which sounds like ATi and their hopelessly out of date DRI, and also (EE) xf86OpenSerial: Cannot open device /dev/wacom (no such file or directory) Which, like Chess, is a total F mystery...? ;-) -- GDM: Greeter application crashing https://launchpad.net/bugs/48936 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
