kdm multi-auto-login does not work anymore

[Ludwin Janvier]

Hello,

kdm Version : 4:4.2.2-0ubuntu2

My kdmrc is below. I want kdm to start automatically 2 sessions (the first with the user "ludwin", the second with the user "karen").
This was working great with ubuntu's previous release (hardy). With the new version from jaunty, the two sessions are open (from auth.log) :

Apr 27 13:58:06 station-lud kdm: :1[24185]: pam_unix(kdm-np:session): session opened for user karen by (uid=0)
Apr 27 13:58:06 station-lud kdm: :1[24185]: pam_ck_connector(kdm-np:session): nox11 mode, ignoring PAM_TTY :1
Apr 27 13:58:07 station-lud kdm: :0[24440]: pam_unix(kdm-np:session): session opened for user ludwin by (uid=0)
Apr 27 13:58:07 station-lud kdm: :0[24440]: pam_ck_connector(kdm-np:session): nox11 mode, ignoring PAM_TTY :0

And the first session (:0) works fine. When I try to reach the second session (with kickoff or by ctrl-alt-F-ing), I can see X crashing and restarting, showing a new kdm greeter (no session open, thus).

auth.log says :
pr 27 14:03:17 station-lud kdm: :1[24185]: pam_unix(kdm-np:session): session closed for user karen

syslog or daemon.log say :
Apr 27 14:03:17 station-lud kdm[24070]: X server for display :1 terminated unexpectedly

This bug does not happen with 2 times the same user. Moreover, I can bypass the bug by pressing ctrl-alt-f9 on kdm start, while the 2 sessions are opening (from tty7, ie :0).

This seems not to be hardware-specific : I had the same problem on a intel and a nvidia chip.

ludwin@station-lud:~$ grep -v ^# /etc/kde4/kdm/kdmrc

Thanks

are bug 368061 and bug 367911 dupes?

[Ludwin Janvier (lud-janvier)]

No, it's not. I have no encrypted FS. My kdm is OK with one auto-logged user (the bug start with 2 users).
