Hi David, Yes, I see this quite a bit. I have a lot of students using x2goclient. Every now and then someone seems to lose control of their application (I don't know how) and it starts writing to the session log file in a loop. Quite often the log information is something like a program writing a prompt message (Like "Enter a number:") and this gets stuck in a loop.
In a terminal, do a tail on the session log file, something like: tail -f .xsession.log and you might see what's writing to the log file. To fix it, you have to kill the program that's doing the logging, terminate the session and then remove the session log. You have to make sure the program doing the logging is gone and not holding the session log open, otherwise the space is not reclaimed.
