I've upgrade gnome to 3.0 and gdm3 (v. 3.0.4-3) connects and disconnects any seconds after. I had to dowgrade to gdm 2.20 but, i can't configure gnome 3 because gnome and gnome-accessibility packages had to be removed.

Thanks for taking the time to report this bug. This bug report isn't very useful because it doesn't describe the bug well. If you have time and can still reproduce the bug, please read http://bugzilla.gnome.org/bug-HOWTO.html and add a more useful description to this bug.
The great problem : I had to uninstall gdm, install gdm3. When I'm connecting to an user account. Gdm connects and immediately disconnect. I saw nothing in logs messages. And after, I must uninstall gdm3 for installing gdm for connecting into my user-account. But, can you tell me in which file I can see the logs? I'm very desapointed.
Created attachment 199416 [details] logs files Log files after installing gdm3.
(In reply to comment #3) > Created an attachment (id=199416) [details] > logs files > > Log files after installing gdm3. I forgot one thing. I deleted the old log files and gdm3 created them after installation of gdm3. I expect that will help you.
when you say "connect to an account" do you mean "login" ?
(In reply to comment #5) > when you say "connect to an account" do you mean "login" ? Yes! I do.
It looks like you're getting a settings-daemon crash of some sort, but would you mind putting Enable=true in the [debug] section of /etc/gdm/custom.conf (or maybe it's called gdm.conf in debian not sure) and then reproducing and attaching \:0-slave.log ?
Created attachment 199528 [details] log files in /var/log/gdm3 This is the log file in /log/var/gdm3/:0-slave.log
Another thing : I've an error message when I login : Failed do load session ("null)".
what's the output of can you log into a tty and run gsettings get org.gnome.desktop.session session-name ? It seems like your dconf database may be some how screwed up, since session should never be (null)

It seems like your dconf database may be some how screwed up, since session > should never be (null) When installing gdm3 I've this warning message : gdm3 warning, undefinet reference to <schema id=`org.gnome.desktop.default-application.at> before launching gdm 3 : the command displays `gnome` after lauching gdm3 : I've open terminal session. I've the message in french : Le schemas «org.gnome.desktop.session» n'existe pas. (translation : the schemas (...) doesn't exist.)
