@brian-murray: For 12.04, unless this bug causes failures for people, I

However, if you do release the code for testing, I shall be happy to

I am even putting this command in a script and adding it to the start-up
process, so that I don't get bothered about this files in
I have 1 dated from January, and the rest (all empty) from the moment I
installed Precise:
$ ls -trl .goutputstream-*
-rw--- 1 michael michael 0 Jan 29 04:28 .goutputstream-G3GV8V
-rw--- 1 michael michael 0 Jun 3 20:58 .goutputstream-SE2CFW
-rw--- 1 michael michael 0 Jun 3 22:42
I have some of these dating back to January 2012, which is about when I
installed 11.10 on this computer. There are far more being created
since I updated to 12.04 (mid-May). All are empty:
-rw--- 1 ann ann0 Jun 18 06:06 .goutputstream-1N9KFW
-rw--- 1 ann ann0 Jun 17 16:03
I also got this. Standard installation of Ubuntu 12.04. The file is
indeed only created on shutdown. I logged in and out but the file wasn't
there. Once I shut down my cumputer and started it again it was there.
The timestamp matches exactly the shutdown time. (I waited a few minutes
before
The fact is that problem exits..
Recently (about 5 days) i installed Ubuntu 12.04 64bit.. and here is my output
$ ls -la | grep goutputstream
-rw--- 1 me me0 Jun 13 01:42 .goutputstream-EUNXFW
-rw--- 1 me me0 Jun 13 17:29 .goutputstream-MOQRFW
-rw--- 1 me me0 Jun 13
I've found several files ~2 Gb size. Ubuntu 12.04 x86-64, gnome-shell,
gdm.
