I'm having hte exact same behaviour. I'm using Ubuntu Gutsy, upgraded from gutsy-rc. I have installed Sabayon. I also disabled some services from the session-management menu (blue-tooth, at-visual) since I don't need them. Desktop effects are activated, but I get the same behaviour if they are disabled, so those are not the problem.
The process that causes the 100% CPU is Nautilus. Steps to reproduce: - Log in. - Log out. - Re-log in. At this time, the session loading is quite long. The panels are appearing after a while and are usable, but the desktop stays empty. Right-clicking on it does nothing. - Trying to log out, the panels will freeze, and the "logout window" will appear after 1-2 minutes (long.....) To work around this: in a terminal "killall -HUP nautilus && nautilus &" ** Attachment added: "Nautilus backtrace" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/10108665/gdb-nautilus-1.txt -- [Gutsy] high processor activity after logging out and then logging in again https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/150471 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
