Description Götz Waschk 2010-08-24 08:51:39 UTC

This is with gdm 2.31.90 on Mandriva Cooker. Directly after the login I get a pop-up window (translated from German):
Metacity (as gdm)
These windows don't support session management and must be restarted manually
Gdm-simple-greeter

Comment 1 Brian Cameron 2010-08-25 19:30:57 UTC

Are you using the latest 2.31 version of metacity?  I believe that you would see this sort of bug if you used the latest GDM with an older metacity.

Comment 2 Götz Waschk 2010-08-25 19:49:04 UTC

It is with metacity 2.30.1. There is no newer release.

Comment 3 Ross Alexander 2010-10-04 10:11:42 UTC

I'm getting the same problem with GDM 2.32.0, gnome-session 2.32.0 and metacity 2.30.3.  An examination of the problem seems to point to a problem with gnome-session not killing windows in the correct order when it closes.

Precis
------

gdm-simple-greeter does not use libSM, instead it uses DBUS to gnome-session.  When gnome-session finishes it requests windows to save themselves either by XSM or by DBUS, asking metacity to go last.

However when it comes to actually kill clients it kills metacity before gdm-simple-greeter.  Metacity checks all remaining windows and any that don't have XSM enabled get reported, even though gdm-simple-greeter has infact saved itself.

So the problem can either be seen as metacity being over zealous or gnome-session not killing the window manager after killing gdm-simple-greeter.

Unfortunately I can't get the logs from gnome-session right now.

Comment 5 Brian Cameron 2010-10-04 16:35:48 UTC

Hmmm.  Looking at the /usr/share/gdm/autostart/LoginWindow files the X-GNOME-Autostart-Phase setting for metacity.desktop is "WindowManager" while for gdm-simple-greeter.desktop it is "Application".  I'd think that gnome-session should be smart enough to kill its clients in proper order, killing apps before the window manager.  You think this is broken?

Comment 6 Ross Alexander 2010-10-04 18:43:24 UTC

Reading the documentation of gnome-session it is quite specific about the order in which it starts up various autostart programs but it seems to kill them in the same order rather than reverse order.  It may be possible to simple reverse the kill order but I'll need to go over the logs and code to see how feasible this is.

Comment 8 Ross Alexander 2010-10-05 09:17:26 UTC

So from the gnome-session log we can see metacity as Client1 and gdm-simple-greeter as Client2.  It requests the save in the correct order (since metacity has the do_last=1 set) but the phase END_SESSION it then stops Client1 before Client2, hence causing metacity to whinge about gdm-simple-greeter not support XSMP.

Comment 9 Ross Alexander 2010-10-13 07:46:50 UTC

Its is worth pursuing this with 2.32.0 or try looking at 2.91.0?

Comment 10 André Klapper 2012-03-07 10:02:26 UTC

Is this still an issue in a recent version or can this be closed as OBSOLETE?

Comment 11 Guillaume Rousse 2012-03-07 10:06:37 UTC

Old story for me.

Comment 12 Colin Guthrie 2012-03-07 11:02:31 UTC

Yeah, I think in the gdm-3 world, this no longer applies.
