Gnome session tends to terminate at random intervals.  Typically it
happens when the screen is locked, and the screen saver is active.

I expect the gnome session to persist, and allow me to log into the same
session once the screen saver password has been accepted.

What actually happens, is the gnome session terminates, and I am
returned to the login screen.  All running applications are terminated.
This tends to happen once to twice per day, and I have not found a way
to reliably recreate the issue.

I am using Natty Narwhal, with the Ubuntu Classic option.
