[Bug 534419] Re: Xorg crashes on first run after boot at entering password

 

apport information

** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: xorg
  
  I have this problem on both my desktop (nvidia card with proprietary
  drivers, 64-bit install, both -generic and -rt kernels) and my laptop
  (intel 945 card, 32-bit install, -generic kernel), both running lucid
  installed afresh from alpha 3, and configured for automatic user login.
  
  On boot, X will start normally. Invoking a gksudo dialogue, entering the
  password and pressing enter crashes X and returns me to the gdm screen.
  I have also seen it crash when entering a password for a wireless
  network - gksudo is just *a* way to trigger the bug.
  
  On my laptop the symptoms are slightly different, because X starts but
  it will often require Ctrl-Shift-F1 Ctrl-Shift-F7 to switch to the
  correct VT. When this is the case, gksudo will crash X, as in my
  desktop. However when X starts and switches to the correct VT the
  problem does not occur. The VT switching issue might be a hardware-
  specific problem, but the crashing on entering passwords is not.
  
  Let me know if I can provide more information.
