I confirm this bug report. I am testing Xubuntu Jaunty 9.04 amd64, 20090216, xfdesktop start so many times and never stop starting. if fulls up memory (1GB and Up) with xfdesktop`s processes and starts to go on swap (My machine has 2GB of ram, 1792MB for Linux, 256MB for integrated graphics).
I cannot log in to Xfce because of that and need to go to killall xfdesktop with Ctrl+Alt+F2. (And killing X with Ctrl+Alt+Backspace) I temporarely removed xfdesktop with aptitude from command line and I can log on Xfce but without desktop and also there is no Xfce Menu anymore. It is major block for further testing and bug reporting for me. i tried to force previous version of xfdesktop in synaptic but with no luck. ** Attachment added: "ps -A | grep xfdesktop > xfproc.txt" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/22665315/xfproc.txt ** Changed in: xfdesktop4 (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete => Confirmed -- Multiple instances of xfdesktop started simultaneously https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/329616 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
