Here is what I noticed about this problem. If you have enabled saved sessions, and enabled Remote Desktop, then /usr/lib/vino-server is called twice on startup. There is an entry in ~/.config/autostart that looks like this:
[Desktop Entry] Name=Remote Desktop Comment=GNOME Remote Desktop Server Exec=/usr/lib/vino/vino-server Icon=preferences-desktop-remote-desktop OnlyShowIn=GNOME; Terminal=false Type=Application AutostartCondition=GNOME /desktop/gnome/remote_access/enabled X-GNOME-Autostart-Phase=Applications X-GNOME-AutoRestart=true X-Ubuntu-Gettext-Domain=vino Name[en_US]=Remote Desktop Comment[en_US]=GNOME Remote Desktop Server X-GNOME-Autostart-enabled=false A second entry is stored in ~.config/gnome-session/saved-session, that looks like this: [Desktop Entry] Name=Remote Desktop Comment=GNOME Remote Desktop Server Exec=/usr/lib/vino/vino-server --sm-config-prefix /vino-server-HoEasp/ --sm-client-id 10bcd2e6992780ce6c125357640957023300000256140028 --screen 0 Icon=preferences-desktop-remote-desktop OnlyShowIn=GNOME; Terminal=false Type=Application AutostartCondition=GNOME /desktop/gnome/remote_access/enabled X-GNOME-Autostart-Phase=Applications X-GNOME-AutoRestart=true X-Ubuntu-Gettext-Domain=vino Name[en_US]=Remote Desktop Comment[en_US]=GNOME Remote Desktop Server X-GNOME-Autostart-enabled=false X-GNOME-Autostart-startup-id=10bcd2e6992780ce6c125357640957023300000256140028 I am probably wrong, but it looks to me like enabling Remote Desktop causes the process to be run twice, with conflicting options. Also, the X-GNOME-AutoRestart=true suggests to me that if the process is killed, it will automatically restart (which is exactly what happens). -- High cpu usage caused by Remote Desktop? https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/367087 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
