Hi Christopher,

Thank you for following this up. I do not use my macbook mentioned for
much anymore (it doesn't have Ubuntu on it anymore). But from my gained
knowledge and experience on Linux in the past  year an a bit I would
have to say that this bug I would put down to the nVidia drivers at the
time. Also the graphics card in the laptop would have been 2007-2008 so
it was rather old and low-end. As such I would mark this as closed as it
has most likely been fixed by nVidia's newest drivers (and other
versions of software improving over time also).

Kind regards,
Ben Kaiser

  Gdk-WARNING: gnome-session: Fatal IO error 11

  Invalid

Bug description:
  I have been getting used to ubuntu on my macbook for the past couple of weeks 
(just ubuntu on hard-drive, no dual boot).
  I have been getting a situation where during normal use of different 
application, can be nautilus, sublime text 2, chrome, etc and the computer 
stops for a second then there is a black screen before I get send back to the 
login screen.

  The log reported in syslog at the time of the crash is:

  Sep 10 12:19:52 benkaiser-MacBook gnome-session[1654]: Gdk-WARNING:
  gnome-session: Fatal IO error 11 (Resource temporarily unavailable) on
  X server :0.#012

  I thought that the proprietary nVidia drivers from their website may
  have been causing the problem so I switched back to the version-
  current-updates one in the additional drivers.

  Some additional information:
  Macbook 7,1
  Ubuntu 12.04 LTS
