i think is because of: http://git.gnome.org/browse/gdm/commit/?id=35f9ce03c26a42856e9246c5995334c09e88ff86

i'm not sure if we have a broken gdm pam implementation or is a bug in the code.
Comment 1 Ray Strode [halfline] 2011-03-08 21:22:25 UTC 
it's actually a bug in the accounts service library. i'm going to push some fixes and do a release shortly.
Comment 2 Ray Strode [halfline] 2011-03-08 21:44:19 UTC 
The following fix has been pushed:

Comment 3 Ray Strode [halfline] 2011-03-08 21:44:22 UTC 
Created attachment 182884 [details] [review]
configure: require newer accounts service library

The older one causes crashes during login.
Comment 4 Ionut Biru 2011-03-08 22:31:48 UTC 
now the problem transformed when using accountsservice 0.6.5.

the session is not starting at all and get stuck with a wallpaper(the one from gdm)

~/.xsession-errors is empty
