Bug Description
After the latest apt-get upgrade, I can't log in with gdm, kdm or xdm any more, except when selecting "failsafe terminal" and starting my windowmanager manually.
X starts up fine, but only in connection with gdm, kdm or xdm.
"startx" on the terminal gives an error-message very similar to Bug #183969
To reproduce:
1. Be in GDM
2. Select Fvwm, Xfce, WM2 or any session except "failsafe terminal"
3. Type in username and password
4. Watch how the screen goes black for a split second and you are returned to GDM
I've never had any problems of this sort before.
3D-programs doesn't work properly either. "glxgears" brings me back to GDM after a split second of the screen going black.
"glxinfo" and "blender" works fine.
I have no idea if that's related or not, though.
