this is so annoying: always, when restarting X, with ctrl-alt-backspace or sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart or in tty by doing /etc/init.d/gdm stop / start, I got 100% cpu load. rrrroaarrrr so I always had to go back to tty (ctrl-alt-f1) and do /etc/init.d/gdm stop killall xfce4-xfapplet-plugin /etc/init.d/gdm start
but now i have a very well working workaround: :) sudo gedit /etc/gdm/PostSession/Default add the command killall xfce4-xfapplet-plugin at the end right before exit 0: save, now everytime you logout or do ctrl-alt-backspace the applet will be killed without being deleted from panel. sudo gedit /etc/init.d/gdm add the command killall xfce4-xfapplet-plugin to line 83, it should look like this: stop) log_begin_msg "Stopping GNOME Display Manager..." start-stop-daemon --stop --quiet --oknodo --pidfile $PIDFILE --name gdm $SSD_ARG --retry 30 >/dev/null 2>&1 killall xfce4-xfapplet-plugin log_end_msg 0 save, now you can work normal in tty and once you have to resatrt gdm, you will notice nothing anymore. hope this helps the few, till its fixed. cheers. -- Restarting X causes Xfce Xfapplet with Gnome System Monitor to fail https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/199803 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
