After the latest upgrade, I’m having trouble logging in with GDM. What happens:
- GDM shows login prompt despite auto-login being configured.
- Enter correct password → ‘incorrect password’ → ‘error while authenticating’ → jumps back into the main menu.
- Enter the correct password, again → continues → black screen → GDM again.
I can start the session via TTY → startx.
Some relevant stuff I found:
https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/65780
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1796544
The bug started happening after rebooting into 31.20200315.0, however booting back into 31.20200311.2 does not work.
Everything works correctly for new accounts. Removing ~/.local/share/gnome-shell
(as per suggestion in the Arch bug) did not help.
