Bear with me through what seems OT... Well I don't know how this can help, but, the same dist-upgrade from Quantal to Raring also broke lxdm or lxsession for me. lxdm would show the greeter and accept the login info, but then would not launch lxsession, or, maybe it started lxsession but lxsession immediately crashed. In any event, neither lxsession nor any of the things it's autostart file listed were in the process list. But manually running "export DISPLAY=:0 ; lxsession &" from a console screen worked.
I couldn't figure out why lxdm wasn't launching lxsession as it used to before the upgrade, so I uninstalled lxdm and install slim. slim worked normally, launching my same old lxsession. And somehow, pcmanfm from raring works too now. No more 100% cpu usage from "pcmanfm --desktop" even though I've upgraded back to the current pcmanfm from raring. So perhaps the problem is as much lxdm failing to provide something for pcmanfm as it is pcmanfm failing rather ungracefully. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/913273 Title: PCManFM consumes >90% CPU To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pcmanfm/+bug/913273/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
