In my case, it is Rhythmbox that has filled the .xsession-errors file. I used less on that file, jumped to the end of the file, and paged up. For about a minute, all I could see where the lines:
(rhythmbox-metadata:29775): GStreamer-CRITICAL **: gst_bus_timed_pop_filtered: assertion `timeout == 0 || bus->priv->poll != NULL' failed over and over again. The xession-errors file is 27 GB, and has now maxed out my system. I am going to delete this log file and if it keeps filling up, I might have to do some fiddling to keep it from being written to. I wish I could find out why this is failing though, to cause all these errors. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1175386 Title: .xsession fills up with gstreamer junk, then system effectively dies To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/1175386/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
