    [SOLVED] Session failed with 'Your session only lasted less than 10 seconds bla bla'

    My X session fails after input the password in GDM screen.
    If I log in as root, it works.
    If I make a new user, the new user can log into X.
    But own one cannot log into X.
    After hit Ctrl+Alt+F1, I can log into terminal mode.

    In the '~/.xsession-erros' file, there's only 3 line.
    Code:
    Launching a SCIM daemon with Socket FrontEnd...
    Loading simple Config module ...
    Creating backend ...
    I googled. I look into the '/var/log/Xorg.0.log', '/var/log/messages', and some other log files.
    But I couldn't find any clue.

    I suspect some applet in the panel which show the status of battery.
    Just before the reboot that fail entering session, I updated some packages, and I noticed that the battery monitoring applet behaves wired.
    I hoped that it would turn no normal after reboot, but it wasn't.

    I am searching and waiting for any clues.
    I want to know where can I get any clues.
    I want to know what configuration files affect to the user's session.

    Thank you for your concern...

    Sorry. I missed specs.
    I use Fedora 8.
    I use Gnome mainly.
    And KDE also fails.

    I solved the problem.

    The origin of the problem was the '.bashrc' and '.bash_profile'.
    I added one line as
    Code:
    set -n
    in the intention of
    Code:
    set -u
    so that was my mistake, a HUGE mistake.

    Anyway, I thank to GOD.
