https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=222499 Summary: gdm starts multiple times - ends up no gdm Product: openSUSE 10.2 Version: Beta 2 Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Major Priority: P5 - None Component: GNOME AssignedTo: bnc-team-gnome@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: fred.blaise@gmail.com QAContact: qa@suse.de Apparently, after installing the latest nvidia driver 9629 (from nvidia site, via their shell script), gdm starts multiple times, and VT-7 ends up with no gdm at all. See below: 4 S root 3475 1 0 75 0 - 3090 - 21:09 ? 00:00:00 /opt/gnome/sbin/gdm 5 S root 3539 3475 0 76 0 - 3089 wait 21:09 ? 00:00:00 /opt/gnome/sbin/gdm 4 S root 3558 3539 0 77 0 - 393 wait 21:10 ? 00:00:00 /opt/gnome/lib/gdm/gdmopen -l /bin/sh -c /usr/bin/dialog --yesno 'There already appears to be an X server running on display :0. Should another display number by tried? Answering no will cause GDM to attempt starting the server on :0 again. (You can change consoles by pressing Ctrl-Alt plus a function key, such as Ctrl-Alt-F7 to go to console 7. X servers usually run on consoles 7 and higher.)' 16 70 Have to killall gdm, and restart it, and no problem then. I looked at the X log, and gdm log, but there seems to be no error showing up. I'm using Xgl/Compiz. Will try with metacity, and see if this behavior is reproduceable then. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.
