Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: gdm
If I choose "xterm" from the greeter (I believe this is the old
"failsafe terminal session" option) and log in, xsplash is running for a
while, and afterwards several gnome-processes are running other than my
xterm and bash.
Whenever I need to use "xterm" session, it is for debugging reasons and
I want to have as little as possible running, not a half-baked gnome
session.
After logging in (which takes abnormally long time, probably because of
the useless xsplash) these processes are around:
