I fix this by killing off unwanted processes in
/etc/X11/gdm/PostSession/Default
That script runs as the user, so you can't just kill all of the user's
processes or you risk killing the executioner before he does his job ;-)
Here's part of mine:
######## Shut down the oaf daemon
oafdpids=`ps -u $USER | grep oafd | cut -c1-5`
[ -z $oafdpids ] || kill -1 $oafdpids
######## Remove files left in /tmp by the user
###### Remove Evolution temporary directories
for EvolutionTempDir in /tmp/evolution-$EUID-*
do
[ -d $EvolutionTempDir ] && rm -Rf $EvolutionTempDir
done
###### Remove orbit & KDE temporary directories
[ -d /tmp/orbit-$USER ] && rm -Rf /tmp/orbit-$USER
[ -d /tmp/ksocket-$USER ] && rm -Rf /tmp/ksocket-$USER
[ -d /tmp/kde-$USER ] && rm -Rf /tmp/kde-$USER
[ -d /tmp/mcop-$USER ] && rm -Rf /tmp/mcop-$USER
###### Remove any scrollkeeper tempfiles
for TempFile in /tmp/scrollkeeper-tempfile*
do
[ `stat -c %u $TempFile` -eq $EUID ] && rm -Rf $TempFile
done
######## Kill any processes the user left running
[ $USER = 'root' ] && exit 0 # Don't zap root
# Clean up a few other things.
LeftoverPids=`ps ho pid -u $USER`
if [ ! -z "$LeftoverPids" ]
then
logger -t "gdmPostSession " $USER "left processes behind"
ps -aef|grep ^$USER | logger -t gdmPostSession
logger -t gdmPostSession.1 "TERM signals to $LeftoverPids..."
kill -15 $LeftoverPids | logger -t gdmPostSession.1
sleep 1
LeftoverPids=`ps -aef | grep ^$USER | cut -c10-15 `
if [ ! -z "$LeftoverPids" ]
then
logger -t gdmPostSession.2 "Kill signals to $LeftoverPids..."
kill -9 $LeftoverPids | logger -t gdmPostSession.2
sleep 1
LeftoverPids=`ps -aef | grep ^$USER | cut -c10-15 `
if [ ! -z "$LeftoverPids" ]
then
logger -t gdmPostSession.failed "Can't kill $LeftoverPids."
ps -aef | grep $LeftoverPids | logger -t gdmPostSession.failed
