You have been subscribed to a public bug:
After logging out of a GNOME session, processes owned by the now-logged-
out user still remain and interfere with subsequent logons. Because
both bonobo-activation-server and gvfs-fuse-daemon are frequently the
culprits, I am not sure to which package to attribute this bug (perhaps
separate bug reports are needed for each aberrant process?).
e.g.
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ w
19:31:47 up 4:40, 1 user, load average: 0.00, 0.03, 0.09
USER TTY FROM LOGIN@ IDLE JCPU PCPU WHAT
toobuntu pts/0 uw5.local 17:23 0.00s 0.18s 0.00s w
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ ps U cindy
PID TTY STAT TIME COMMAND
6538 ? Ss 0:00 /usr/lib/gvfs//gvfs-fuse-daemon /home/cindy/.gvfs
#[toobuntu: note the double slash here]
My current workaround is to run 'ps U <username-of-user-who-logged-off>' and if
any processes show up, to run my helper script:
$ cat /usr/local/bin/kill-stragglers
#!/bin/bash
# takes 1 argument: the username of the user who logged off
USER=$1
sudo kill -9 $( ps U $USER | grep -v TTY | awk '{print $1}' ) 2> /dev/null
