In case of failsafe session, gnome-session is called with -f options. The bug was in /etc/X11/Xsession.d/20x11-common_process-args where $1 is "gnome-session -f" This causes some troubles when trying to STARTUP_FULL_PATH=$(/usr/bin/which "$1" || true) So, we went to else statement, without STARTUP set up Consequently /etc/X11/Xsession.d/50x11-common_determine-startup set it to /usr/bin/x-session-manager, which is an alternative to gnome-session in lucid. Fix available at http://git.debian.org/?p=pkg-xorg/debian/xorg.git;a=blobdiff;f=debian/local/Xsession.d/20x11-common_process-args;h=33696ad9988cf7a5d5683bb027ae40a85cf53a15;hp=53e7a7b294f8c2a3b63dd0320b6d79e6225c683b;hb=75c2a9cfacafbd46c433b44dd672985433032f99;hpb=50706e3079f37799a3e6a3a06d711c764703960c

Of course you don't have ubuntu packages in Debian. But you still suffers from this bug, see your GIT repo, as you were able to find it before closing the bug: http://git.debian.org/?p=pkg-xorg/debian/xorg.git;a=blob;f=debian/local/Xsession.d/20x11-common_process-args;h=53e7a7b294f8c2a3b63dd0320b6d79e6225c683b;hb=2bf7b132745b48a45115632bef19034d60905f95 We offer you a patch in your git repository format, what else we can do to be better citizen? Seems just to be unconstructive thoughts from your answer.

I think that the actual issue is the following one: #694832 and #566825 also seem duplicates of #653327 . Sending a copy of this message to all of these bug reports, some of them quite old; to see if submitters, triagers and maintainers concur and we can get it fixed. Cheers.
