AFAICT, xsplash is probably making X segfault and the session be closed
when its resolution (the default xorg one) doesn't match the user
preferred one (as set in xfce4-settings). Xfce4-settings-helper (spawned
by xfce4-session) restores the user preferred resolution while xsplash
is running, which doesn't seem to like that. I can easily reproduce this
on karmic by setting a lower resolution; unfortunately it's currently
impossible to get a proper Xorg backtrace either on karmic or lucid.

** Package changed: gdm (Ubuntu) => xsplash (Ubuntu)

** Changed in: xsplash (Ubuntu)
       Status: New => Confirmed
