[Bug 804171] Re: After latest upgrade of oneiric, Lightdm or Xserver not working

 

In the file "/var/log/lightdm/lightdm.log" I attached on #22, I also get
"Permission denied" warnings:

> DEBUG: Adding session authority to /var/lib/lightdm/.Xauthority
> WARNING: Error reading existing Xauthority: Error opening file: Permission denied
> DEBUG: Restoring privileges
> WARNING: Failed to write authority: Error opening file '/var/lib/lightdm/.Xauthority': Permission denied
> DEBUG: Failed to start greeter session
> DEBUG: Stopping display

Is it a different bug from the current one?

Title:
  After latest upgrade of oneiric, Lightdm or Xserver not working

Status in One Hundred Paper Cuts:
  New
Status in “lightdm” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  It seems that, after last upgrade of Oneiric made one hour ago, either Xserver or lightdm doesn't work anymore.
  Before the login screen Ubuntu prints out some state messages. The last one is "Checking battery state" (mine it is not a portable PC)
  I have to press Alt+F1, I logged in and wrote "startx". Gnome3 says "Failed to load session "gnome-fallback"" (my pc doesn't support neither Gnome-shell nor Unity3D) and pressing the only button Log Out terminal compares again.
  Is it possible to rollback last upgrade of Lightdm?
