nomikeHi!08:09
nomikeI've upgraded my (X)ubuntu 17.10 to 18.04 and now, I can't login to any Xfce4 or Xubuntu sessions. I get the Balou starter (the mouse) and after a couple of seconds it drops back to gdm. Any ideas of how to debug this?08:11
pmjdebru1jngdm?08:12
pmjdebru1jnpresumably you mean lightdm?08:12
nomikeor lightdm, whatever is uses nowadays.08:12
pmjdebru1jnnomike: if you create a new user, do you still have the issue?08:12
pmjdebru1jnas in, is it homedir related or not?08:12
nomikeyes, still have the same issue08:12
nomikei was expecting some ".Xsession-errors" or similar named file to show up.08:13
diogenes_nomike, you could try to edit: /usr/share/xsession/xubuntu.desktop and modify exec=xterm08:17
nomikeI managed to login this way. Will have a look at the console output of "startxfce4". It started up but there are lot's of errors. Some cache seems to be corrupt and stuff like that.08:24
nomikeThx for now, this was a great help.08:25
diogenes_nomike, you managed to login what way?08:25
nomikeI modified the session script to start xterm. And in xterm I executed "startxfce4 &".08:28
nomikeI have no clue yet why it worked like that, but I'm trying to find out.08:29
diogenes_the xterm should have given you a hint what the error might be08:29
nomikehttps://pastebin.com/T1RSphfd There are some errors about missing files in "/home/micpos/" resulting from temporarily renaming my user from "micpos" to "nomike" which could be ignored for now.08:32
FurretUberHow do I make the system aware a specific connection has limited data?14:01
FurretUberI'm connecting to internet using USB Tethering but I would not like the OS/applications downloading updates while using it (unattended-upgrades)14:03
