Public bug reported: Binary package hint: gnome-session
Sometimes it happens that my session crashes, and I cannot log in again unless I log in using a virtual console and kill all the stuck gnome programs. In my opinion, these programs should die with the X session because you can't take control of them again. The responsible process seems to be gconfd, but I am not sure, however it's not that much user friendly: a newbie will only be able to reboot his machine. This is an issue that has affected gnome2 since its beginning, and that always gave me that "gnome is broken" feeling that is now more and more a thing of the past. ** Affects: gnome-session (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: Unconfirmed -- Unable to login after session crash https://launchpad.net/bugs/70618 -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
