The machine is ok in the early morning. I leave home for work and return after 9.5-10 hours. gnome-settings-daemon is making the numlock blink feverishly and the system slowish. So we kill gnome-settings-daemon. Also we kill the dconf thing. We log out. The machine completes slowly. We log in and stuff is mostly fine again for the rest of the day and next morning. But is this a nice way to work with the box? Therefor I increased severity again. Mikhail created a very nice bug report. Bastien: please come and help fix this.

FC17 x86_64 up to date. dconf-service and gnome-settings-daemon are taking 100% CPU and doing a lot of I/O on disk. For me it was triggered, _each time_, when using vino-server (Gnome 3 remote desktop) on the local machine (the one having the problem). I was connected from a distant client (this one did not malfunction ever) to this local machine. I was killing both services to restore the usability of the remote machine, and it oftently crashes the session. Eventually both services were automatically restarted and the problem was here again, and I had to kill both services again and risking a session crash. Temporary fix : Using dconf-editor : uncheck the check-box from org.gnome.settings-daemon.peripherals.keyboard.remember-numlock-state. This temporary fix works for me.

Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 17. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '17'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 17's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 17 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 17's end of life. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete.
