Hello all.

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...

It sounds like the X server is crashing, but I'm not sure. Can someone
shed some light on the problem, and solution please? If more info is
needed, please let me know. Also, if you feel this is inappropriate
for the list, go ahead and reply privately, and thanks in advance.

Greg

P.S. I do have a monitor connected to the vga port, and powered up.

Gnome is working for me under Unstable; you could try upgrading to that, or
just waiting a while to see if it is fixed in Testing. If not, it's time to
run reportbug, or take it to an appropriate Debian list.

Hi

I used to have that problem when my router was playing up and I had no
network connection.  I'm affraid I focused upon getting the router
sorted out and never looked at where the xserver was linked to network
connectivity.

four kinds of freedom, for the users of the software:

    * The freedom to run the program, for any purpose (freedom 0).
    * The freedom to study how the program works, and adapt it to your
needs (freedom 1). Access to the source code is a precondition for this.
    * The freedom to redistribute copies so you can help your neighbor
(freedom 2).
    * The freedom to improve the program, and release your improvements
to the public, so that the whole community benefits (freedom 3). Access
to the source code is a precondition for this.
