Hello, did you make sure to restart the gdm or rebooting after the gdm update? Can you please post the contents of your /etc/gdm/custom.conf file? I am currently unable to reproduce on my local machine. But I will test it on a new installation of 8.6 to double check.
So the new installation of rhel-8.6 is also without any issue. The gdm version on install was gdm-40.0-23.el8_6.1.x86_64 I tested the issue with this version. I also updated like you to the gdm-1:40.0-27.el8.x86_64 and tested the issue again and it works as expected for me.
I did reboot my machine after upgrading gdm. Here are the contents of /etc/gdm/custom.conf: # GDM configuration [daemon] # force gdm login screen to use Xorg WaylandEnable=false [security] # enable Xserver listening on TCP ports DisallowTCP=false [xdmcp] [chooser] [debug]
Thank you for your report. The issue is not immediately reproducible in-house, so there's some aspect of the bug that's somehow related to your specific configuration or package set. Do you have an open support ticket on https://access.redhat.com/ ? If so, can you post a link to it here? If not, can you open one and post a link to this bug report there? As part of going through Red Hat support, you'll be asked for collect things (like a sosreport, GDM debug logs, etc) that will be helpful in diagnosing your problem. I notice your repository is called INFORMAL and not one of the Red Hat Enterprise Linux base channels. To be clear, the gdm package installed isn't a local rebuild, right? This is a red hat provided build ? I ask, because the behavior you describe could happen if the package was built without, or with an old version of xorg-x11-server-devel, I think. Thank you for your continued cooperation. Hopefully we can get to the bottom of the problem you are seeing!
Hello, I can get the case and sos report to you by next Wednesday. When I install the version that came with the red hat provided build, it installs gdm-40.0-23.el8_6.1.x86_64. After rebooting, I still get the same result: ==>ps lf -C Xorg *** /usr/libexec/Xorg vt1 -displayfd 3 -auth /run/user/42/gdm/Xauthority -nolisten tcp -background none -noreset -keeptty -novtswitch -verbose 3
