Auto Logout

Hi all,

I’m using SLED-11 SP2 32 with GNOME only on my Dell Inspiron Laptop. Last 3 weeks it’s happening, not a regular interval.
When I tried to open FF from Main Menu the system automatically logout & login screen appear (it first display a black screen, probably very low resolution because mouse icon is different than my current GUI size, then it display the tty1 terminal (background is the SUSE logo and white text) for a while, then it goes to the login screen (GNOME version)).
After login the system works fine, if I again open the FF from Main Menu, it working well, no problem on anywhere, but some times it happen, I even don’t know where to find the main cause (log files).

So, can any one tell me, if in future it again happens, then after relogin, which log file content I will post for better understand the main cause.

Hi
The file .xsession-errors should contain info as to the possible cause.
Is the system up to date?

Hi
So at some point you had KDE installed? Can you create a test user and
login as that test user, does the same issue happen?

Note, when posting text output can you please use code tags, if output
is long, use somewhere like http://paste.opensuse.org (set the expire to
never).

Hi Malcolm,

I have created a test user, if in future it again happen, then I will inform through this post

  1. Permissions: If you have sudo or root access, try using commands with sudo to resolve the permission errors.
  2. Graphics Drivers: Make sure that the correct drivers are installed for your GPU. If you have an AMD GPU, ensure you have the appropriate driver installed.
  3. Configuration: Modify the xorg.conf or equivalent configuration to include Option "SHMConfig" "true" if you need to use GSynaptics.
  4. GNOME Issues: Check for updates to the GNOME settings daemon and ensure you have all necessary dependencies installed. Missing packages may cause the critical warnings.

Let me know if you need more help troubleshooting specific parts!
