**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Sat Oct 06 03:00:02 2012 Oct 06 17:52:17 does anyone know anything about this error from lightdm: Oct 06 17:52:19 WARNING: Error using VT_ACTIVATE 7 on /dev/console: Invalid argument Oct 06 17:52:57 not really, try #ubuntu-desktop (specifically robert_ancell, he is upstream) Oct 06 17:54:58 fwiw, I don't see this on my laptop.. I do see on panda, and when I google for that I turn up a bunch of other panda or other arm-ish looking setups.. Oct 06 17:56:01 ogra_, or anyone else that has a panda setup with working lightdm, could you check quickly if you see the same error in /var/log/lightdm/lightdm.log? Oct 06 17:56:06 i wonder if thats a vesa function Oct 06 17:56:24 well, looks like normal VT switch stuff, which I would *expect* to work.. Oct 06 17:56:49 of course, might be some funny dependency on vga-switcharoo or some vesa stuff Oct 06 17:57:26 [+66.25s] DEBUG: Greeter connected, display is ready Oct 06 17:57:27 [+66.25s] DEBUG: New display ready, switching to it Oct 06 17:57:27 [+66.25s] DEBUG: Activating VT 7 Oct 06 17:57:35 nothing else wrt VT Oct 06 17:58:18 so it seems to be fine for me Oct 06 17:58:41 ok.. then I guess that I am on the right track about my lightdm issues.. Oct 06 18:01:40 did you compare your kernel config to ours ? Oct 06 18:02:37 ogra_, well, that is just w/ TI ppa kernel.. my dev filesystem w/ self-built kernel is fine Oct 06 18:02:55 I guess I can grab /proc/config.gz Oct 06 18:03:29 I'm not sure what config you have in main repo's.. or if ours differs.. but I guess somehow lightdm works for at least some other people.. Oct 06 18:03:30 not sure we ship that enabled but /boot has the config Oct 06 18:04:04 got a config handy that I could diff against? Oct 06 18:06:09 one sec Oct 06 18:08:44 robclark, http://paste.ubuntu.com/1264305/ Oct 06 18:10:32 urrg.. way does paste.ubuntu.com make me login to download as plain text.. wget doesn't like that much :-/ Oct 06 18:10:46 yeah, its odd Oct 06 18:11:05 the alternative would be a capcha i guess Oct 06 18:11:21 IS doesnt wont to run it fully open Oct 06 18:12:04 well, I guess wget couldn't deal w/ a captcha either :-P Oct 06 18:12:14 yeah Oct 06 18:13:26 ogra_, hmm, we have CONFIG_VT_HW_CONSOLE_BINDING=y, but you do not.. Oct 06 18:13:48 there are a bunch of other diff's but I guess they are unrelated (I guess this is from 3.5 kernel in your case?) **** ENDING LOGGING AT Sun Oct 07 02:59:58 2012
