Programs of my computer.

Theme name: Adwaita
Kernel version = 4.7.4-desktop-2.mga6
Distribution=Mageia release 6 (Cauldron) for x86_64
CPU=Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-2500 CPU @ 3.30GHz

The software asks for password but doesn't start. And nothing happens next (there isn't message or error).

In terminal : "
[XXXX@localhost ~]$ drakconf 
Ignore the following Glib::Object::Introspection & Gtk3 warnings
No protocol specified
Cannot be run in console mode.
"
I don't know where are the log for this software. I attach the list of the programs of my computer if it can help.

PS : When I have installed Mageia 6, the program worked. After updating the software in september, it didn't work.

I looked for "wayland",  "gnome", and "gdm" because of similar bug 19498

You don't seem to have any other DM or DE installed, so this is very likely a duplicate of that bug.

Can you confirm comment 6 of that report:

> The bug only occurs if I log in using the default "Gnome" option in the GDM
