[Bug 1011986] [NEW] After logout Xorg stays stuck in tty_ld

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

Precise is not able to restart Xorg after a logout in any of my
machines. After I log out, the Xorg process stays stuck in tty_ld. ps
shows:

4     0  1258  1187  20   0      0     0 tty_ld Ds+  tty7       0:07 [Xorg]
0  1000  2977  2959  20   0   9396   916 pipe_w S+   tty1       0:00 grep Xorg

Since tty7 remains busy, no new desktop manager and Xorg start up
automatically.

Dmesg last line seems to be relevant:
[  193.702121] tty_ldisc_hangup: waiting (Xorg) for tty7 took too long, but we keep waiting...

It seems that a password prompt for some smb/cifs mounts that are not
marked as noauto are causing the issue.

//nasi/data             /home/gema/data         cifs    user,user=gema
0       0

Adding noauto works around the problem,

//nasi/data             /home/gema/data         cifs
noauto,user,user=gema  0       0
