Binary package hint: gdm
When I installed intrepid alpha 6, compiz was enabled by default and I could run a guest session. With recent updates (last update I think 29 september), if I launch a second session - e.g. using the guest menu entry, it does not start. If I disable desktop effects, then it works. However, if I start X using "X :1" from a console it of course works.
I attach the X server logs, the output from "lspci -vvn", and the contents of /var/log/gdm. |

The bug is again there, disabling compiz makes guest session work fine otherwise it won't start. Probably this problem comes up at random and is not 100% reproducible. |

This is in essence a bug in the graphics driver. In fact I had the same problem earlier, but it was fixed with a compiz workaround. See bug 269509 for details.
Can you please do "glxinfo > /tmp/primary.txt" in your normal working session, then start a guest session, let it settle for a minute or two, and then type blindly:
* Alt-F2
* glxinfo > /tmp/guest.txt
* Enter
* Control-Alt-Backspace to kill the guest session
Then please attach /tmp/primary.txt and /tmp/guest.txt here. |
