Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: gnome-session
Sometimes my computer gets into a state such that *something* inside my
gnome-session attempts to spawn an infinite number of nautilus windows.
This eventually results in the maximum number of X clients being
reached. Killing or sig STOPping nautilus doesn't help.
This morning it happened again upon resume from suspend. I killed my
gnome-session process, ensured there were no more processes for my uid
running, then re-logged on via GDM. Immediately, the "opening..."
entries in the panel window list started to multiply. This time I
STOPped nautilus again and they started to die back.
This might possibly be triggered by a stale mount caused by samba, see
#620322. Next time I experience either, I will try to figure out if they
are occuring at the same time (and whether fixing the mount fixes the
problem).
