Hi, I doubt that this is related to the grub hide-menu stuff. More likely this is one of the first composes to have gdm-3.29.90, which has changes to kill the greeter gnome-shell session when it is no longer necessary, freeing about 250M of RAM. I suspect that the kill greeter when no longer necessary changes may have broken autologin. Regards, Hans That sounds very plausible! Let's check. The previous successful compose was 20180813.n.0, all the ones between failed. And that compose had gdm-3.28.2-2.fc29.x86_64.rpm (see https://kojipkgs.fedoraproject.org/compose/rawhide/Fedora-Rawhide-20180813.n.0/compose/Everything/x86_64/os/Packages/g/ ). And indeed, 20180817.n.1 has gdm-3.29.90-1.fc29.x86_64.rpm (see https://kojipkgs.fedoraproject.org/compose/rawhide/Fedora-Rawhide-20180817.n.1/compose/Everything/x86_64/os/Packages/g/ ). So, that sure adds up. Thanks for the pointer. gdm-3.28.4-1.fc28 has been submitted as an update to Fedora 28. https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2018-f0de6c872c gdm-3.28.4-1.fc28 has been pushed to the Fedora 28 testing repository. If problems still persist, please make note of it in this bug report. See https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA:Updates_Testing for instructions on how to install test updates. You can provide feedback for this update here: https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2018-f0de6c872c *** Bug 1618910 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** This was reported against Rawhide, not F28. (It also affects F29 of course). Can you please send builds for Rawhide and F29 before marking this as fixed? Thanks. oops that fix was meant for bug 1618582. anyway i built what i think should fix this bug now into rawhide. please reopen if i'm wrong. This does seem to be fixed in today's Rawhide and F29 composes. However, I suspect something similar affects gnome-initial-setup, as after a successful install (on F29...install fails on Rawhide for other reasons), the installed system doesn't boot properly, it boots to a kinda blank desktop: https://openqa.fedoraproject.org/tests/269891#step/_graphical_wait_login/9 I'll file a new bug on that. |
