Created an attachment (id=569418) --> (http://bugzilla.novell.com/attachment.cgi?id=569418) [details] Attached the file requested

After uncompress the tar file the problem remains. I attached the file requested.

Thanks, that was just to see if the xauthority file was corrupt, but both yours and Davids are intact so that's not the reason for the failure to connect to the X server. The problem here is that it is a race condition and I can't reproduce it neither on my laptop nor in a vm and there are many moving parts involved (lightdm, systemd, the xdm init script, X) and error reporting of X clients is pretty useless. I'm in contact with upstream about this. -- 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.

In Anibal's log it only shows the X server authority files and not the greeter authority files. In David's logs it shows both, but in the "Before running X" stage the X authority has changed for some reason, and the greeter is continuing with the original X authority. If this is true they definitely couldn't connect. Could you please re-try these tests and attach lightdm.log after this occurs? I need more information.

@Guido just a side note: as you could not reproduce the problem on your machines, have you upgraded from 12.3 or did a clean install? As I have reproduced the problem on three different machines now with a new install.

I always do clean installs (except when explicitly testing/triaging in vms), I also monitor OpenQA for Xfce runs and I've never seen it show up there either. So it probably boils down to a certain timing that triggers it. -- 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.

Thanks Marcus,

The log looks normal.

The only part I can't see is what /etc/X11/xdm/Xsetup does. Is that standard OpenSUSE code or is there something custom in there?

The openSUSE default Xsetup script only does some tweaks such as setting up the keyboard map, numlock and the screensaver, see http://susepaste.org/aaf896d9

Is there any chance this could modify the xauthority files?

At least in case of the default script posted above, I don't think so. -- 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.

@Robert Ancell @Guido will one of you perhaps be at FOSDEM? If so, I could probably bring a device where the problem occurs.

I'm afraid I won't be attending.
