Bug ID: 1624972
Summary: No GUI desktop
Product: Fedora
Version: 29
Component: xfce4-session
Severity: high
Assignee: ***@scrye.com
Reporter: ***@htt-consult.com
QA Contact: extras-***@fedoraproject.org
CC: ***@scrye.com, ***@gmail.com

Description of problem:

The Xfce desktop never starts. Lighted screen only

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

Fedora-Xfce-armhfp-29-20180903.n.0-sda on Cubieboard2

How reproducible:

Been this way since I started testing F29-Xfce

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Copy image to uSD card, specifying for a Cubieboard2
2. Connect Cubie to HDMI monitor, Kybd, Mouse, console TTY
3. Run screen on console to capture console log and login to console
4. Power up Cubie
5. "Started GSSAPI Proxy Daemon" is the last message on console and monitor
before attempt to switch to GUI mode

Actual results:

Lighted screen with no response to kybd or mouse
See:

[ 148.658848] alloc_contig_range: [74200, 749f8) PFNs busy
[ 165.979868] bridge: filtering via arp/ip/ip6tables is no longer available by
[ 173.413278] alloc_contig_range: [74200, 74af8) PFNs busy
[ 430.058044] alloc_contig_range: [74200, 74500) PFNs busy

messages on console. Console is very slow to respond.

Expected results:

GUI starts up and whatever system initiation process runs on the Desktop. I do
not know what that will be, as I have yet to get a F29 initial desktop.

Additional info:

The same setup with Centos Gnome:

CentOS-Userland-7-armv7hl-generic-GNOME-1804-sda

Brings up the Gnome desktop. I have not tried any other F29 desktop.

You have to write ARMTracker in the Blocks field, right?
<https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=245418>

Btw, bug 1624972 is currently linked, isn't it?

OK. I see after I created the bug, there was a field called 'Blocks'
which I entered ARMTracker into. I did not see this when I was entering
the bug.

It's mostly definitely there in the new bug page

BTW,

It seems the problem is with lightdm. It is fixed with the version in
the testing-update, but not in the base image. So I am in wait mode
until this goes through whatever it needs to go through...

dnf upgrade should be enough to install it, and then reboot?

Yes. That is what I did. The system was really slow with all the
lightdm crashes, and dnf update took really long, but that may been for
all the other updates and dnf update to SD card in general.

Once updated and rebooted, the GUI started up and I was able to run
through setup. Please see my last note in the bug report.

I want to see an image with this version of lightdm and see it properly
go directly into the GUI setup.

BTW,
It seems the problem is with lightdm. It is fixed with the version in
the testing-update, but not in the base image. So I am in wait mode
until this goes through whatever it needs to go through...

dnf upgrade should be enough to install it, and then reboot?

Yes. That is what I did. The system was really slow with all the
lightdm crashes, and dnf update took really long, but that may been for
all the other updates and dnf update to SD card in general.

"systemctl stop lightdm" would have disabled the service.

Once updated and rebooted, the GUI started up and I was able to run
through setup. Please see my last note in the bug report.
I want to see an image with this version of lightdm and see it properly
go directly into the GUI setup.

Sure, we're in freeze for beta ATM so _EVERY_ single change has to go
through an approval process so it takes time.... oh and I want a pony!

No Blocks: on my screen. See attached. I had tried Bug ID, but that
was not it.

ah, you need to switch to the "advanced" form. There should be a link
or button on the top.

Well hopefully this is the only bug I will ever need to report. ;)'

Bug ID: 1624972
Summary: No GUI desktop
Product: Fedora
Version: 29
Component: xfce4-session
Severity: high
The Xfce desktop never starts. Lighted screen only
Fedora-Xfce-armhfp-29-20180903.n.0-sda on Cubieboard2
Been this way since I started testing F29-Xfce
1. Copy image to uSD card, specifying for a Cubieboard2
2. Connect Cubie to HDMI monitor, Kybd, Mouse, console TTY
3. Run screen on console to capture console log and
login to console
4. Power up Cubie
5. "Started GSSAPI Proxy Daemon" is the last message
on console and monitor before attempt to switch to GUI mode
Lighted screen with no response to kybd or mouse
[ 148.658848] alloc_contig_range: [74200, 749f8)
PFNs busy [ 165.979868] bridge: filtering via arp/ip/ip6tables
[74200, 74500) PFNs busy
messages on console. Console is very slow to respond.
GUI starts up and whatever system initiation process
runs on the Desktop. I do not know what that will be, as I have
yet to get a F29 initial desktop.
CentOS-Userland-7-armv7hl-generic-GNOME-1804-sda
Brings up the Gnome desktop. I have not tried any
other F29 desktop.

Peter, thanks for taking a hand in this.

"systemctl stop lightdm" would have disabled the service.

But it is necessary to know about lightdm. It was only through working
through reporting the bug that I stumbled on lightdm being a problem.
Perhaps next time I will try stopping something that I see keeps looping
starting and crashing...

I had wanted to attend the meeting today, but I forgot all about it when
finally working more on this bug. Would have been interesting to join
in for the first time. But more valuable that I identified something
wrong and what fixes it.

And no pony for me. Never did like Ford cars! :)
(my automotive days I worked at AMC then Chrysler)

Thanks for pushing this bug fix through. I will test an image once I
see the new version in the repo.
