** Changed in: xorg-server (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete ** Summary changed: - Need more login tries to start X (Xubuntu) + X crash on start (Xubuntu) ** Description changed: Binary package hint: gdm I installed Xubuntu 9.10 beta from the Xubuntu beta installation disc. In the beginning everything was working fine. But after some time (maybe after changing resolution via "Settings -> Display") I have difficulties logging into X. This takes between 1 or 5 login tries. Along with that problem I lost the xfce-panel, which I worked around with adding it add manually to "Session and Autostart". My system is quite "default" and uptodate, with some packages from medibuntu. In my home directory there's a .xsession-errors.old with these contents: /etc/gdm/Xsession: Beginning session setup... Setting IM through im-switch for locale=en_US. Start IM through /etc/X11/xinit/xinput.d/all_ALL linked to /etc/X11/xinit/xinput.d/default. /usr/bin/startxfce4: X server already running on display :0 xrdb: "Xft.hinting" on line 9 overrides entry on line 6 xrdb: "Xft.hintstyle" on line 11 overrides entry on line 7 ** (gnome-screensaver:2905): WARNING **: Failed to get session presence proxy: Could not get owner of name 'org.gnome.SessionManager': no such name xfdesktop[2927]: starting up gnome-screensaver: Fatal IO error 104 (Connection reset by peer) on X server :0.0. xfce4-session: Fatal IO error 104 (Connection reset by peer) on X server :0.0. xfsettingsd: Fatal IO error 104 (Connection reset by peer) on X server :0.0. xfwm4: Fatal IO error 104 (Connection reset by peer) on X server :0.0.
