[DSE-Dev] Bug#874191: might be a duplicate

[Russell Coker]

https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=874201

Yesterday I was investigating an issue that might be related and I just filed 
the above bug report.  Please investigate whether that might be the cause.

# ps axZ|grep sddm
system_u:system_r:xdm_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 963 ?   Ssl    0:00 /usr/bin/sddm

Run "ps axZ|grep gdm3" to see the context, the output should be something like 
the above if all goes well (xdm_t is the relevant part).

# ls -lZ /usr/bin/sddm
-rwxr-xr-x. 1 root root system_u:object_r:xdm_exec_t:s0 475968 Mar 14 19:50 /
usr/bin/sddm

Also run "ls -lZ" on the binary to see if it has the right context, the output 
should be something like the above, xdm_exec_t is the relevant part.

If those checks pass then run the systemctl command suggested in #874201 and 
restart gdm3 to see if it gets the right context.

PS  I gave up on gdm3 last time due to some other issues.  Is there a gdm3 
specific feature you really need?  If you want to improve Debian then 
debugging this is a good thing to do, if you just want a working system then 
sddm might be a better choice.
