Package: gdm3
Version: 3.14.1-8
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

After logging in via the gdm3 graphical greeter, the ‘Oh no, something went
wrong …’ splash screen is shown for a few seconds.  Then, in most cases the
normal session appears.  (On rare occasions the login screen is shown again and
I have to log in again.)  Apparently, gnome-shell dies.

journalctl -b /usr/bin/gnome-session is not too helpful for me (Note the change
in the pid.):

This problem occurs on three different computers.  What they have in common are
similar graphics cards:

01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation GK208M [GeForce GT 730M] (rev a1)

#2:
00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Xeon E3-1200 v3/4th Gen Core Processor Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 06)

#3:
00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Broadwell-U Integrated Graphics (rev 09)


If you need more information, please let me know.
