Public bug reported:

After system update around june 27, GDM (from Gnome3 PPA) will not
start. Message "gdm-simple-slave[2306]: CRITICAL:
gdm_session_direct_get_username: assertion `session != NULL' failed"
appears in /var/log/syslog.

I am able to switch console ALT-F1, and login to Gnome3 using the startx
command.

My /var/log/Xorg.5.log gives the error "xf86CloseConsole: VT_WAITACTIVE
failed: Interrupted system call" short before a stack trace from Xorg.
