Description Christophe Fergeau 2004-10-31 21:37:26 UTC
With a gnome from CVS HEAD built using jhbuild, gnome-session hangs upon log in.
I traced it to gnome-settings-daemon hanging when trying to init its xkb stuff,
more precisely it hangs in gnome_settings_keyboard_xkb_load. I'm using xfree 4.3
from debian sid if that has any importance.

svu, any idea ?
Comment 2 Sebastien Bacher 2004-10-31 21:42:39 UTC
same problem here, xfree 4.3 too (warty package but that's basically the debian
one).
Comment 3 Sergey V. Udaltsov 2004-10-31 22:16:56 UTC
it is most probably me. Just as I am writing it, I am hunting this bug.:)
Comment 4 Sergey V. Udaltsov 2004-11-01 00:11:31 UTC
The quick hack is in CVS. Continuing the investigation.
Comment 5 Colin Watson 2004-11-10 11:34:41 UTC
This seems to be happening due to using XklConfig*() functions without first calling XklConfigInit(). Adding that right after XklInit() fixed it for me.
Comment 6 Sergey V. Udaltsov 2004-11-10 14:17:26 UTC
No, it was another story - but anyway, in 1.11 it should all be ok.
