I've packaged the aforementioned patch here: http://people.ubuntu.com/~bryce/Testing/gdm/

The potential downside could be if it lengthens the restart process noticeably. Would someone mind testing this and confirming it addresses the problem? -- gdm spawns a new X server when told to restart the system https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/126797 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
