Description shakti 2004-07-16 04:04:51 UTC
When a session is saved during logout, and when the same user logs in,
the splash-screen (Gnome 2.6 splash-screen) displayed, when the desktop is
loading, does not exit after the desktop comes up. It stays until the user
clicks on it and only on it or the user has to wait for 3-4 minutes for
gnome-splash-screen to quit.

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. Click on System->Log out
2. Select the option 'Save current setup'
3. Click on 'OK'
4. Relogin as the same user.
5. Wait until the desktop fully loads

Actual Results:
The splash-screen displayed, when loading the desktop, does not exit after the
desktop is loaded.

Expected Results:
The logo should disappear after the desktop is loaded.

How often does this happen? 
Always

Additional Information:
Once the problem happens, even after a normal logout ( without again saving
the session ), relogin exhibits this same problem.

By mistake I have filed the same bug (#147577) against GDM. Copy/pasting the
contents of that bug.

------- Additional Comment #1 From shakti  2004-07-14 10:51 -------

Some clients take excessive period of time to register and they are still in the
pending list. The splash-screen stops only when there is no client in the
pending list.

Is it correct to hide the splash-screen once the difault setting gets loaded?

-         if (pending_list)
+         if (pending_list) {
+            gtk_widget_hide (GTK_WIDGET (global_splash));
+            global_splash = NULL;
+
            return;
+         }
