Description Tom London 2011-02-27 17:05:44 UTC
Description of problem:
Randomly when I login, instead of getting gnome-shell, I seem to get the 'old gnome desktop' (i.e., gnome-panel, etc.).

The only thing I can observe is that each time this occurs, I see this in ~/.xsession-errors:

gnome-session[1723]: WARNING: Had to kill '/usr/libexec/gnome-session-is-accelerated' helper

Here is a bigger snippet:

pam: gdm-password[1723]: DEBUG(+): GdmSessionWorker: Checking if /home/tbl/.face.icon should be copied to cache /var/cache/gdm/tbl/face
pam: gdm-password[1723]: DEBUG(+): File does not exist
pam: gdm-password[1723]: DEBUG(+): Not copying file /home/tbl/.face.icon to cache
pam: gdm-password[1723]: DEBUG(+): Checking user's ~/.gnome/gdm file
pam: gdm-password[1723]: DEBUG(+): File does not exist
gnome-session[1723]: WARNING: Had to kill '/usr/libexec/gnome-session-is-accelerated' helper
GNOME_KEYRING_CONTROL=/tmp/keyring-fk1hip
GNOME_KEYRING_CONTROL=/tmp/keyring-fk1hip
GNOME_KEYRING_CONTROL=/tmp/keyring-fk1hip
GPG_AGENT_INFO=/tmp/keyring-fk1hip/gpg:0:1

Appears to be intermittent (or a race?), as it happens about 1 login in about 5 or 10.  

If I immediately logout and log back in, I get gnome-shell and no message about needed to kill gnome-session-is-accelerated.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
gnome-session-2.91.6-3.fc15.x86_64

How reproducible:
Happens about one login in 5 or 10

I do not know if it is related but since the latest update of gnome-session in F15 the login is very slow.
Version: gnome-session-2.91.94-1.fc15.x86_64

Before it was randomly hanging now it is on each boot.

Comment 2 Fedora End Of Life 2013-04-03 17:25:49 UTC
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 19 development cycle.
Changing version to '19'.

(As we did not run this process for some time, it could affect also pre-Fedora 19 development
cycle bugs. We are very sorry. It will help us with cleanup during Fedora 19 End Of Life. Thank you.)

Comment 3 Fedora End Of Life 2015-01-09 16:35:21 UTC
This message is a notice that Fedora 19 is now at end of life. Fedora 
has stopped maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 19. It is 
Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no 
longer maintained. Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now this bug will
be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '19'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' 
to a later Fedora version.

Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not 
able to fix it before Fedora 19 is end of life. If you would still like 
to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version 
of Fedora, you are encouraged  change the 'version' to a later Fedora 
version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's 
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a 
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes 
bugs or makes them obsolete.

Comment 4 Fedora End Of Life 2015-02-17 13:39:41 UTC
Fedora 19 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2015-01-06. Fedora 19 is
no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further
security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug.

If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of
Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. If you
are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the
current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this
bug.

Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
