Please also note that my above post (providing the backtrace and strace)
was a little overzealous -- in my effort to get a useful backtrace (with
the built debug-packages) I have been unable to preproduce the described
situation since the bugreport, but when I noticed the mentioned 100% CPU

The "relict" process is /usr/lib/libgconf2-4/gconfd-2 that runs for the
previously logged-in user, and I don't know what it's doing but it eats
all the CPU activity (100%).

The problem appeared again, so here are the (hopefully helpful)
backtrace (attached) and the output of strace:

Thank you for your work on that. Marking unconfirmed. What is that "

Since my bugreport I hadn't experienced the unusually high CPU usage for
gconfd-2, but I noticed that the respective process for previously
logged user(s) still persists. I don't know if this behaviour is normal
or not, but I assume that the high CPU usage comes when the "relict"
process has experi
Building the debug packages turned out to be much easier than I thought,
but after installing them the update-manager wants to update these -- I
suppose that I don't want to do that unless I've finished using the
debug version.
Waiting for the bug to come again;)
Thanks for the help sofar, Sebast
I'm affraid that I'm not proficient with building debs, but I'll try to
do my best to resolve this issue.
If I face the described situation again, should I post here the same
type of info as I already did? Or is there something else to have in
mind while using the debug package?

Thank you for the work on that. That's normal that the CPU usage stops
when gdb attach the process because it stops it. The backtrace looks
like a problem, it lacks details to be useful though. Could you try to
build a debug package for gconf2 as explained on
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingProgra
Well, I have tried to run the described steps (for an already running
program) with sudo and here the output is attached.
It is interesting that after issuing "attach 5771" the CPU usage dropped
to normal levels (2-3%), but when I said "quit" at the gdb prompt and
"exited anyway", the CPU was agai
I'm glad that I still haven't rebooted since then to get rid of the
annoying situation and the observed anomaly still eats almost all of my
CPU cycles, so here is the requested info.
First of all, I am unable to do successfully "(gdb) attach " as
described in the wiki -- I get "no permission". Is
Thanks for your bug report. Could you try to open a backtrace
(https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Backtrace) for the gconfd-2 process when it's
using cpu. Could you also try to "strace -p PID" it and not what it's
doing to a comment
