Subject: Session closure from gnome-core dashboard crashes the system

Package: gnome-core
Version: 1:2.14.3.6
Severity: critical
Tags: l10n
Justification: breaks the whole system

I added some "buttons" in the Gnome dashboard by using the Gnome 
dashboard customization software (invoked by a 3-button right-click 
action in the dashboard bar). If I want to disconnect from the current 
session, I click on the "Close session" pictogram - a read-arrow on the 
left with a semi-opened door - : then the system crashes (maybe only the X window server, or Gnome ?). I got then a 
blinking-and-colored screen with no ability to cleanly go restore my session or to shutdown or reboot GNU/Linux 
debian lenny. The onky way to get out from this lockup situation is to 
turn off power ... and hope that the File System would be OK for the 
subsequent boot. This problem can be reproduced at no time. It is 
a systematic behavior. If I want to switch from a normal user to the 
root user, I have to reboot the whole system, losing minutes of time.
