Description of problem: Immediately after entering my password on the login screen, the following message appears: You have chosen Default System Session for this session. If you wish to make Default System Session the default for future sessions, run the 'switchdesk' utility (System->Desktop Switching Tool from the panel menu). I have never changed any of the defaults. Following the instructions doesn't make the message go away, it always appears. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): gdm-2.4.4.0-2 How reproducible: always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Enter username and password on login screen. Actual results: "switchdesk' message appears. I click on "OK" and log in as usual. Expected results: Should be logged in without 'switchdesk' message. Additional info: Downgrading to the original gdm-2.4.1.3-8 package from Severn eliminates the problem. When I upgrade back to gdm-2.4.4.0-2, it comes back.
Same problem here. But I can't reproduce this with a new account. However i fix this with the $HOME/.dmrc file. .dmrc broken : [Desktop] Session=gnome.desktop .dmrc that works : [Desktop] Session=Default.desktop
This is fixed with gdm-2.4.4.0-2 from rawhide. The login manager now shows three choices: 1. Default #i.e. Gnome 2. KDE 3. Failsafe. IMHO, this bug can be marked as "closed"
No, this is still a probem with gdm-2.4.4.0-2.
This is a duplicate bug of #104287.
