** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: xorg
  
  How to reproduce:
-    sudo mkdir /etc/X11/Xsession.d/directory
+    sudo mkdir /etc/X11/Xsession.d/70foo
  
  Now any login attempt from gdm fails.
  
  I discovered this problem because the 'fglrx' package (ATI proprietary
  video driver), probably from an old version of Ubuntu,  created a
  directory /etc/X11/Xsession.d/70fglrx_32bit_dri. The directory was still
  there after the Lucid->Maverick upgrade.
  
  I appears that this directory was not a problem in previous version of
  xorg (such as Ubuntu Lucid), so this is a recent change in Xsession for
  Maverick.
