Attachments:	process list(s) while waiting for GNOME login to finish

Description Ulrich Windl 2005-11-14 11:30:54 UTC

After booting the machine, the GNOME login session did not come to an end. After "zapping" the X11 server, the second attempt to log in suceeded. See list of processes (attachement) taken while the system seemed to be hanging.

process list(s) while waiting for GNOME login to finish

I see nothing obvious in the process list - are you able to replicate this?

Comment 3 Ulrich Windl 2005-11-14 14:41:21 UTC

I cannot reproduce (yet), because I don't logout/login too frequently, and I'm also not rebooting that frequently:
reboot   system boot  2.6.13-15-defaul Mon Nov 14 08:15          (07:15)
reboot   system boot  2.6.13-15-defaul Mon Oct 24 09:27         (18+05:44)

Could it be that GNOME waits for some process to finish (suspecting evolution hanging processes), and if such a process hangs, GNOME login hangs?
From the GNOME control panel's "session" settings I see that many applications are started with same priority.

Comment 4 JP Rosevear 2005-11-14 14:54:46 UTC

Evolution won't block the logout.

And yes, GNOME could be waiting, but I've only seen this problem before with yast.

Good chance this is duplicate of bug 141322
