Hi,
I have a very strange, but fully reproducible, regression with
2.6.25-rc1 -rc2. I have an ubuntu 7.10 fully updated.
The first time after boot, when I login to gnome (through gdm)
the login half-fails with a Setting Daemon error: failed to connect to
socket /tmp/dbus-<some random stuff>: connection refused. Nothing in the
logs, and there is no such socket in /tmp.
If I log out and then log in again, all works ok.
With 2.6.24.2 there is no such a problem.
.config, dmesg (2M buffer size) and syslog here:

(Back to 2.6.24.2, because ndiswrapper broke again, and ath5k doesn't
like (yet) my atheros adapter...)

It may be a race. Please try booting up, then waiting for a minute or
two once you see the gdm login screen, then try logging in.
If that succeeds then something (dbus perhaps) is hanging on something
that eventually times out.

Just upgraded my laptop to 2.6.25-rc6 and I see the same. A little
instrumentation shows that there is no socket to connect to aka the
server side process (whatever that is) didn't start.

Hmm. Okay, mind if I ask some stupid questions?
I'm assuming you upgraded from 2.6.24, correct? (not .25-rcX).
Are you running either debian or ubuntu? If so, do you have the
dbus-x11 package installed? Alternately, does /usr/bin/dbus-launch
exist? If no, try installing dbus-x11 and try again. I think a
side-effect of installing is to start dbus earlier, and may perhaps
avoid the race (if it is a race that's causing all this, which I still
think it is).

If the above doesn't help, is there anything interesting in ~/.xsession-errors?

Yes, installing dbus-x11 makes everything work properly, aka paper
over the underlying issue.
