Description Jared D. McNeill 2009-03-17 18:03:45 UTC
Please describe the problem:
When gnome-session is finished autostarting applications, Xorg chews up 100% CPU. Reverting back to gnome-session 2.24.3 makes the problem go away.

If I start the individual components by hand (without gnome-session), I am unable to reproduce the issue.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Update to gnome-session 2.26.0
2. startx
3. top


Actual results:
CPU0 states:  0.0% user,  0.0% nice,  0.0% system,  0.0% interrupt,  100% idle
CPU1 states: 33.3% user,  0.0% nice, 66.7% system,  0.0% interrupt,  0.0% idle

21464 jmcneill  25    0  2040K   39M RUN/1      5:59 96.97% 96.97% Xorg

Expected results:
Same behaviour as gnome-session 2.24.x.

Does this happen every time?
Yes.
