Description of problem: I updated my system, and gdm no longer starts. I am still able to run gnome using the startx command. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 3.14.2-12.el7.x86_64 How reproducible: Every time Steps to Reproduce: 1. Boot system Actual results: gdm tries to start but displays a generic (graphical) error screen Expected results: gdm should display a login prompt Additional info: I am using the nvidia driver from elrepo (kmod-nvidia-352.63-1.el7.elrepo.x86_64). I found the following in /var/log/gdm/:0-greeter.log: X Error of failed request: BadValue (integer parameter out of range for operation) Major opcode of failed request: 153 (GLX) Minor opcode of failed request: 3 (X_GLXCreateContext) Value in failed request: 0x0 Serial number of failed request: 24 Current serial number in output stream: 25 gnome-session-check-accelerated: Helper exited with code 256 X Error of failed request: BadValue (integer parameter out of range for operation) Major opcode of failed request: 153 (GLX) Minor opcode of failed request: 3 (X_GLXCreateContext) Value in failed request: 0x0 Serial number of failed request: 24 Current serial number in output stream: 25 gnome-session-check-accelerated: Helper exited with code 256
Apologies for the extremely late reply to this report. It seems like, perhaps, the nvidia drivers were improperly installed. I hope in the interveaning 4 years you go this working!
