xfce4-session-logout doesn't segfaults, it's xfce4-session. Try to attach it using gdb -p $(pid xfce4-session). You should do it from a console or from ssh since when it'll be killed the session might be frozen. > > http://blog.cryptomilk.org/2010/12/23/gdb-backtrace-to-file/ > > but the resulting file contained only "no stack" and "no registers". That might work but, again, the one to debug is xfce4-session. Regards, -- Yves-Alexis
