[Bug 59832] Re: gdm crash when closing a window

[smurf]

** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: gdm
  
  Hi to all.
  I have ubuntu dapper running on AMD athlon 64 2800, kernel is 2.6.15-26-amd64-k8.
  Quite often my gdm crash when I press the x button in upper right corner of a window. The desktop freeze but other tools (ie music player) continue to work.
  I found in /var/log/gdm some log files named :o.log.x and one or two of these gets huge size:
  -rw-r--r-- 1 root root      928 2006-09-10 22:22 :0.log
  -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 28765374 2006-09-10 22:21 :0.log.1
  -rw-r--r-- 1 root root     1159 2006-09-10 12:18 :0.log.4
  
- the content of the biggest one (:0.log.1 in this case) is only the
- follow line:
+ the content of the biggest one (:0.log.1 in this case) is the follow
+ line, repeated n times:
  
  Freeing resource id=40A017E6 which isn't there.
  
  As well I found another log always with the same time in system log,
  like this:
  
  Sep 10 22:22:29 localhost gconfd (luca-4430): The address "xml:readonly:/etc/gconf/gconf.xml.mandatory" has been changed to a read only  configuration source in position0
  Sep 10 22:22:29 localhost gconfd (luca-4430): The address  "xml:readwrite:/home/luca/.gconf" has been changed to a writable configuration source in position 1
  Sep 10 22:22:29 localhost gconfd (luca-4430): The address "xml:readonly:/etc/gconf/gconf.xml.defaults" has been changed to a read only configuration source in position 2
  Sep 10 22:22:29 localhost gconfd (luca-4430): The address  "xml:readonly:/var/lib/gconf/debian.defaults" has been changed to a read only configuration source in position 3
  Sep 10 22:22:29 localhost gconfd (luca-4430): The address  "xml:readonly:/var/lib/gconf/defaults"  has been changed to a read only configuration source in position 4
  
  (I translated this from italian, so maybe instead of "changed" it should
  sound better "resolved" but I'm unsure... sorry for that)
  
  But I don't know if there is any relationship between the two events.
  
  I hope to find a solution for this because it make the system very
  unstable.
  
  Thanks a lot.
