Bug#740928: X errors

[Pied]

Hi.

In ddition to what I wrote yesterday, when I run X manually, and then
start gnome-shell in it via the DISPLAY environment variable, X spits
out the following error as gnome-shell dies without even showing the 'Oh
No' message:

This is the same error that happens when I kill my first instance of
xterm when I don't have a cursor yet.
However, starting xmonad as the first app (instead of xterm, that is)
works.
I do not know if this is related...



By the way, what could I debug with GDB? The 'oh no' message not being a
segfault, I don't have a backtrace there... Do you suggest running
gnome-shell instruction after instruction? Are there specific places
where to put breakpoints?
Are there gnome-related logs that could be somewhere to help me figure
out what failed?

Cheers,

P!
