Apologies for what maybe an off topic post, but I was hoping someone here may be able to help. I have gnome installed on a debian testing system. It worked fine for me until recently, and I'm guessing something must have broken during an upgrade, but don't know exactly when, or which upgrade, since I don't use gnome daily on this machine. What happens is that I login, here "welcome to orca", and after about 40 seconds or so, here my pc speaker beep, placing me again at the login screen. Here's the output of my $HOME/.xsession-errors: /etc/gdm/Xsession: Beginning session setup...
