Can you send a stack of firefox-bin while it is in this state, and
maybe a couple of seconds of truss output?

Yes.  Very strange.

So   enough  of  firefox.

 I know what  gconfd   is .

 but  what is the function  of  /opt/SUNWapleg/bin/desktopApps
 Its being started by a Xsession startup script.

 Do I need this SUNWardsa-misc package ?

Sorry I have no insight into these packages.  They're not
related to Sun Ray Software, that's all I know about them.
You'd probably have to ask on [EMAIL PROTECTED]

By the way, it has recently been determined that you should
be able to write an xautolock kill script that uses gnome-session-save
to exit the session.  Perhaps this will work more cleanly.  Here are the
notes from CR 6485550:

I believe the desired functionality is available with the existing 
gnome-session-save utility.

You can call it with the following options

--silent : This is the argument that you need.  It causes the dialog asking if
           the user wants to exit the session to not be displayed
--kill   : This is the other argument that you need.  It causes the session to
           actually die.

I'm still doing some research to find out whether you can optionally decide 
whether to save the session or not.

Some more information:

The --gui option only affects this message that gnome-session-save might display
if it cannot connect to the session manager.

      display_error (_("Could not connect to the session manager"));

So, the --gui option does not affect the logout dialog or the dialog that tells
you 'These windows do not support "save current setup" and will have to be restarted manually next time you log in'. These messages actually are coming from metacity,
not gnome-session-save.

If you specify the --silent option, then the logout dialog and the 'These windows do not support "save current setup" and will have to be restarted manually next time you log in" dialogs are not shown.

If you specify the --silent option *without* the --kill option, then it saves 
the
user's session and does not prompt the user for any input.

If you specify the --silent and --kill options together, then it will exit the
session and will *not* save the user session. The one exception is if the user has their auto_save_session GConf setting set to true (not the normal default), then it will save the user session when you specify --silent and --kill together. The full GConf key is:

   /apps/gnome-session/options/auto_save_session

So, if you actually do want to save the user's session and you also want to kill
the session silently, you would need to run gnome-session-save twice.  The first
time to save the session, the second time to kill the session.  Even if the 
user has auto_save_session set to true, this wouldn't cause a problem - it 
would just waste a bit of time saving the information twice.

   gnome-session-save --silent
   gnome-session-save --silent --kill

Note that not all programs in JDS or GNOME support the SM session save feature (provided by the Xserver libSM library). So saving the user's session won't mean that all programs will necessarily be restarted.
