Package: gnome-session
Severity: normal

When the laptop is connected any USB device like USB mouse or external
keyboard, the gdm3 does not start. It tries to start multiple times.
But fails.
When the gnome3 desktop is running, if any USB device is plugged,
gnome3 crashes , tries to restart gdm3 again , fails.
Without USB devices plugged everything works fine.

Let me know any additional information I need to give.
Version of gnome I use is 3.4

This looks completely unrelated to GNOME and GDM, this is the X server
crashing.

And this could be the cause. Please try again with a standard Debian
kernel, and reassign to the X server if it still happens.

Cheers,
