Gnome and GDM not starting after update

Hey guys,

I know there are a bunch of posts with this topic but I have the problem that I cannot find any log outputs. Where do I find gnome outputs? The xserver has no problems at all. The GDM is not starting and even starting the gnome-session is not working. Any ideas?

Thanks and regards

Which update do you mean. Please provide some version numbers.

Re: Gnome and GDM not starting after update

gdm and gnome-session both log to journald, so you'll want to look there for errors.

Re: Gnome and GDM not starting after update

After weeks and month of hoping an update fixes my problem I tried to start gnome by hand with setting up my xinitrc with exec gnome-session. This is what journalctl -e /usr/bin/gnome-session says:
