I think the problem still exists with Xsession when use gdm to login, at least in 12.04.5 LTS: (Yeah I know the release is not officially supported any more, just in case anybody is interested to trace back) (For the moment I leave the comment here, before somebody is sure this is related to

Moving to fix released. For sometime now the updates in Intrepid have shown zero zombies on my install plus a number of other testers installs. Should anyone still be replicating the problem who has confirmed they have correctly synched their install to the latest Intrepid repos, please advise.

The duplicate bug #252702 notes that the zombies are present under gnome-session, but I seem to have x-session-manager instead. Could someone else post their output of ps axf? Thanks in advance. ** Attachment added: Output of ps axf http://launchpadlibrarian.net/16377406/zombie.log -- Many

Thanks for that, it looks the same as mine. In any case, my best guess is gdm, so I'll file it against that. This also seems like an issue that needs to be fixed by release. ** Changed in: gdm (Ubuntu) Sourcepackagename: None = gdm Target: None = ubuntu-8.10 -- Many processes are zombies

Marking as gnome-session. The duplicate had the zombies spawned from gnome-session, and the two logs here are from x-session-manager, which after looking at 'man x-session-manager', appears to be gnome-session. ** Changed in: gnome-session (Ubuntu) Sourcepackagename: None = gnome-session --
