I've tried to find out which programs constitute to those pids in .xsession-errors, but I've been unable to find out that. However. if the pid of gnome-session is x, then the first of the pids in .xsession- errors is a little bit higher than x, maybe x+[34], and the and the next is maybe x + [8-10].
I wrote a small shell script that would do ps ax to a file every 0.01 second, and between two file outputs, it seems that those pid hase managed to both start and disappear, so it happens very fast. What is very odd, is that once when I did ran this script and logged in, it did work! Then I immediately logged out and in, and since then it has not worked again. :-( ps ax reveals that gconfd-2 is running, with pid=x + ~50-60, and gnome- keyring-daemon, pid = x - [1-3] Hope this could be of some relevance. What would probably be helpful is to found out which programs constitute to those pids, but I am not skilled enough in Linux to find out that by myself unfortunately. Could anyone please tell me how to find out this? ** Summary changed: - gnome-session hangs on log in + [Hardy] gnome-session hangs on log in -- [Hardy] gnome-session hangs on log in https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/179552 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
