This page is intended to include 'How-to' style debugging/troubleshooting information for GNOME.

Enable gnome-session debugging

The recommended first step for trying to debug issues in GNOME related to various GNOME components is to enable the debug flag in /usr/bin/gnome-session. To do this, edit /usr/bin/gnome-session as root and add the the following option to the end of the last line: --debug:

   /usr/bin/gnome-session
exec /usr/libexec/gnome-session-binary "$@" --debug

Then, logging into GNOME will result to debug log messages sent to /var/log.

Enable Debugging in GDM

Edit /etc/gdm/custom.conf and add:

   /etc/gdm/custom.conf
[debug]

Enable=True

Then restart gdm via /etc/init.d/gdm restart, which will result in additional log messages being added to /var/log as well as being added to /var/log/gdm logs.
