hi John,

here are your #33 requests:

my system:
home made desktop: p5wdh+q9550+8500gt+4go ddr2+2pata+1sata
os: maverick i386 with latest main server updates (35-20-generic-pae)
packages: plymouth 0.2.8.2-2ubuntu3, gdm 2.30.5-0ubuntu2, upstart 0.6.6-3, nvidia-current 256.53-0ubuntu2

note: compiz completly removed/purged

how it boot:

start as it might, gdm ask for password, i enable numlock as my password is built with num+letters, write the password and validate (enter): at that time gdm fail and it ask again for password, but numlock is again disabled (strange), i enabled numlock again and validate my password, now its working.

what is logged:

i've booted with plymouth:debug on the boot line.
/var/run/gdm/ : cant read it, the icon folder is greyed with an x, own by root:gdm (i've my user added to gdm group)

gdm-session-worker[1201]: GLib-GObject-CRITICAL: g_value_get_boolean: assertion `G_VALUE_HOLDS_BOOLEAN (value)' failed
