gnome-session 2.26.0 causes Xorg to eat 100% CPU
Last modified: 2009-03-17 18:32:28 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.
