Bug Description
I'm using Ubuntu 12.04 dev and sometimes I'm seeing zombie processes which are using no virtual memory and not closing. They will only close if their parent process closes. For example if I start lxterminal and opening htop I will see that there are 2 lxterminal processes. One normal process and one forked process which is a zombie. The same happens sometimes with lxdm-binary if I login into my desktop. In the attachments is a screenshot from such processes.
