** Summary changed:

- creating selection area in gimp causes logout from ubuntu
+ gimp 2.6.12 actions cause logout from ubuntu

** Description changed:

- This is weird. I'm using 12.04 on an emachines e443 64 bit computer.
- When I open a photo in Gimp 2.6.12 and I click to draw a rectangular
- selection area it instantly shows a black screen with some logging out
- text. Immediately afterwards my password screen for logging in on the
- computer appears. There is no error message, just an instant and direct
- logout.
+ I Just discovered that not only is the following true, but if I do
+ anything using Gimp 2.6.12 I get logged out of Ubuntu.

  In the name of science I repeated the situation, and was able to read
  something about "Start ClamAV" in the black screen. It goes so fast I
  can't read all of it.
  
  Since I also have a windows partition I know the computer isn't doing a
  complete restart or I would have the option of selecting either OS. Any
  thoughts?
  
  My processor is:
  
  AMD C-Series dual-core processor C-50 (1.0 GHz, 1 MB L2 cache, DDR3 1066
  MHz, 9 W)
  
  My graphics card is:
  
  AMD Radeon™ HD 6250 Graphics with 256 MB of dedicated system memory,
  supporting Unified Video Decoder 3 (UVD3), OpenCL® 1.1, OpenGL® 3.1,
  OpenEXR High Dynamic-Range (HDR) technology, Shader Model 5.0,
  Microsoft® DirectX® 11
  
  When I was trying to make the computer a bit less sluggish in Windows,
  before installing Ubuntu, I threw 8GB of RAM on it, so I know this isn't
  a lack of memory issue.
  
  I used 12.04 for a while with Gimp and had no issues. This started
  sometime after July 4th. Perhaps an update caused this problem?
