Gnome login fails at first attempt

r4ptor · 2014-03-24 16:19:38

Hi guys,

I'm having a strange problem here.

When I boot my notebook and try to login into Gnome, it constantly fails at the first attempt.
So I click on my username, enter the (correct) password and nothing happens. I cancle it with 'esc', click on the username again, enter the password and I'm in.
This also occurs when I lock my screen.

Any ideas why Gnome tries to troll me and how to fix it?

Thanks.

Specs:
Macbook pro 5,5
GDM 3.10.0.1
GNOME Shell 3.10.4

Any more information needed? Let me know.

I am having similar problems. I am using GDM and Gnome-shell. However, when I launch into Awesome from GDM everything works fine. So I am thinking the problem is with GDM + Gnome-shell.

rdk · 2014-04-09 19:06:45

For me, the issue happened when gdk-pixbuf2 failed on an update. Running pacman -S gdk-pixbuf2 solved the issue.

I'm having the same issue after doing a system update. Also the icon set is all messed up for me. I get the Gnome2 icon set for some reason. Tried reinstalling gnome and GDM and removing their configs but that didn't help either.

Anyone manage to find a fix for this?

EDIT: So apparently I was having the same issue as RDK was. Thanks for that
