So, I was attempting to but ubuntu 9.04 onto an old laptop. This particular laptop decided it was not going to boot from cd, but it did want to boot from the network. So I installed it via the network, but it was just the bare minimum. So I put xfce on it, and a few other things. Lastly, I installed gdm login manager. Now when I try to log in it tells me
Unable to determine failsafe session name. Possible causes:
xfconfd isn't running (D-Bus setup problem); environment
variable $XDG_CONFIG_DIRS is set incorrectly (must include "/etc")
or xfce4-session is installed incorrectly.
XFCE worked fine before the login window so I don't think its the last one.
