You have been subscribed to a public bug:

After a night-to-day unlock screen (my workstation stays awake but
screen locked with screensaver activated), my CPU is almost burned by
the 'gnome-session' process. But this this not the only problem. I can't
launch any application, not even KDE-based apps. The one's that stood
open like terminal, Firefox, etc, continues to work; but the new ones
that I launch from gnome panel don't even show the window borders.

This continue happening since 1 month ago. My system is alway up-to-
date.

Sometimes, when I close Firefox process and relaunch it, that behaviour
disappears, but 5 min after using my workstation it comes back and my
Desktop stays unusable. I can't logout; need to force a X reboot by CTRL
+ALT-BACKSPACE, then everything goes normal.

When I lock my workstation for 2 hours (lunch time! :) ), nothing
happens after unlocking and can work normally until the end of day.

Please help me diagnosing this problem (I'm really lost and don't know
where to start digging). It's a really a nasty behaviour. My machine is
a Dell Optiplex 740 with 3GB RAM.

I use Ubuntu Intrepid 32-bit.

Thanks for the help!
