Hi, Sérgio,<br>
<br>
I was observing something similar in my sid box with wdm and icewm, and today<br>
the behavior reached my testing box. There is an important difference, I do not<br>
have gnome-settings-daemon installed.<br>
<br></blockquote><div>That probably means that gnome-settings-daemon is what triggers for gdm3 the failure.</div><div>That should give a clue for the knowledgeable guys of what's causing this (if they don't know already).</div>

Looking at the packages upgraded today in my testing box, I notice that<br>
together with many other packages, there was upgrades in the X stuff,<br>
<br>
x11-utils:i386 (7.6+1, 7.6+2)<br>
xserver-common:i386 (1.9.5-1, 1.10.1-2)<br>
xserver-xorg-core:i386 (1.9.5-1, 1.10.1-2)<br>
xserver-xorg-input-evdev:i386 (2.6.0-2, 2.6.0-2+b1)<br>
xserver-xorg-input-kbd:i386 (1.6.0-1, 1.6.0-1+b1)<br>
xserver-xorg-input-mouse:i386 (1.7.0-2, 1.7.0-2+b1)<br>
xserver-xorg-input-synaptics:i386 (1.4.0-1, 1.4.0-1+b1)<br>
xserver-xorg-input-wacom:i386 (0.10.10+20110203-1, 0.10.10+20110203-1+b1)<br>
xserver-xorg-video-ati:i386 (6.14.1-1, 6.14.1-1+b1)<br>
xserver-xorg-video-mach64:i386 (6.8.2-5, 6.9.0-1)<br>
xserver-xorg-video-r128:i386 (6.8.1-5, 6.8.1-5+b1)<br>
xserver-xorg-video-radeon:i386 (6.14.1-1, 6.14.1-1+b1)<br>
<br>
in the glibc packages,<br>
<br>
libc-bin:i386 (2.11.2-11, 2.13-4)<br>
libc-dev-bin:i386 (2.11.2-11, 2.13-4)<br>
libc6-amd64:i386 (2.11.2-11, 2.13-4)<br>
libc6-dev:i386 (2.11.2-11, 2.13-4)<br>
libc6-i686:i386 (2.11.2-11, 2.13-4)<br>
libc6:i386 (2.11.2-11, 2.13-4)<br>
<br>
as well as in the perl stuff.<br><br></blockquote><div> I remember when that first happened to me it was a large update because I was waiting for the perl stuff to settle so it was mostly the perl things (minus a couple that were still broken) plus the xserver update (from a layman view the latter must be the one that's incompatible with the display manager's/session manager's setups).</div>
<div>Maybe in sid the glibc upgrades came afterwards, but I can't recall with certainty.</div></div>
