** Description changed:

  I've got this problem using lubuntu with three monitor.
  
  I have a laptop with intel video card and set the monitors using arandr.
  
  After that:
  pcmanfm --desktop --profile lubuntu
  
  goes 100% cpu and can't open a new file manager window.
  
- killing the process makes it respawn and goes 100% cpu again.
+ killing the process makes it respawn and goes 100% cpu again. This
+ happens every reboot.
  
- 
- Only way to fix is to:
- killall pcmanfm && pcmanfm
+ Only way i found to fix is to:
+ killall -9 pcmanfm && pcmanfm (desktop will flash)
+ ctrl-z
+ kill -9 %1
  
  this usually interrupts the respawning and let you execute single file
- manager instances normally
+ manager instances normally. The SIGKILLs are necessary, pcmanfm is
+ looped somewhere and won't respond.
  
  the version is:
  PCManFM 1.2.0
