[Bug 675337] Re: Black screen instead of (gdm) login screen after dist-upgrade.

 

Hi drizzle,

I tried the dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg and gdm. No change.

If I rename the xorg.conf file it looks a bit different (some garbage on
the top of the screen flashes momentarily). The :0.log file in
/var/log/gdm shows X is now using the nv driver instead of nvidia... But
still same black screen. But, this time the :0-greeter.log file is empty
and the :0-slave.log file contains:

gdm-simple-slave[2058]: WARNING: Unable to open session: The name
org.freedesktop.ConsoleKit was not provided by any .service files

gdm-simple-slave[2058]: WARNING: Could not spawn command: Failed to execute child process "/usr/bin/dbus-launch" (Permission denied)
gdm-simple-slave[2058]: WARNING: Unable to launch D-Bus daemon: Failed to execute child process "/usr/bin/dbus-launch" (Permission denied)

gdm-simple-slave[2058]: WARNING: Could not start command '/usr/bin/gnome-session --autostart=/usr/share/gdm/autostart/LoginWindow/': Failed to execute child process "/usr/bin/gnome-session" (Permission denied)

Permission denied?
