[Bug 831870] Re: Gnome session terminates randomly.

 

I changed screensaver settings from "GLMatrix" to "Blank Screen".  I
have not seen a recurrence of this issue in the past few days with these
settings.

  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.
