After the latest updates including the kernel I get always a error message box: "Could not update /var/lib/gdm.ICEauthority file" before GDM comes up. The subsequent start of Gnome is also very slow. I followed several recommendations, for instance checking the permissions: rkrell@linux:~> ls -ld /var/lib/gdm/ drwxr-x--- 9 gdm gdm 4096 2010-09-08 23:18 /var/lib/gdm/ rkrell@linux:~> sudo ls -l /var/lib/gdm/.ICEauthority -rw------- 1 gdm gdm 35558 2010-09-08 22:25 /var/lib/gdm/.ICEauthority and setting the pre-defined security policy to home workstation in runlevel 3, fllowed by reboot, but there is no success.
