I would enter my password and it would "try" to login and return right back= to the gdm login screen. I've since removed gdm from my OS configuration (because I have to do actual *work* on this computer), but I think it would have been enough to just chown /var/lib/gdm and rm ~/.xsession-errors (!) in order to make it work again. Does that mean that user ids are non-reproducible? Why not have user_id =3D hash(user_name) ? Then they *are* reproducible. (I've tried finding the spot where those user accounts are generated/updated but so far have been unable to) Anyway, this is just to record the problem and workaround. I won't do further research on this problem on it on this computer. The "gdm" system account is gone by now because I've removed gdm from the OS configuration--and I don't plan on adding it ever again. For reference, in order to remove gdm from the system configuration in /etc/config.scm, do: (1) Replace %desktop-services by (remove (lambda (service) (eq? (service-kind service) gdm-service-type)) %= desktop-services) (2) Add (service slim-service-type) to SERVICES in /etc/config.scm (3) guix system reconfigure /etc/config.scm --Sig_/GJwqkjBo0lix+rvee6F6tYk Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Description: OpenPGP digital signature -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQEzBAEBCgAdFiEEds7GsXJ0tGXALbPZ5xo1VCwwuqUFAl/Dm/AACgkQ5xo1VCww uqVhCQf/WsQedB2SJcRyggzFVgIbfBon1o08ZsjharOZ6iP6yj+PQRW63T/Nkwqm M4+QKlvXnhKiiotmQWi7skAje5eYW4uVt47TUTBr9+++4EEJh5aTlnWg2wf1Q9Z3 DgQRJxxjH6U1cn8J1gBFW2tFmrTrM0ONAtB9BPohAh5Kz70c9FiUTimVsl+GwA0t rpLxVXRvTs/Hiox/fx5R4UueVYeFoNKJ/OuOrdMeamkyOqrx+cZX50+7mdUZIGU0 xod0fOxRf9Gj+ZT4cJY9FeLrn6Xq1rs06MSLe6HD9D/6RuvA1T6bhk8G23LFeVML RXY9vgUWfTqdSk1mQBfXqJgz5A5XIw== =rut2 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --Sig_/GJwqkjBo0lix+rvee6F6tYk--
