This bug also means a second user cannot VNC into the Ubuntu machine until the first person has logged out and the Gnome Desktop Manager (gdm) has been restarted. The second user and the first user trying to log in having logged out a message about the server being in application mode (using UltraVNC from Windows).
I have had to write a script run from cron to detect when a user has logged off to automatically restart gdm before another user can VNC in as a workaround.
I have implemented an inetd spawned vncserver on Solaris (sparc) 10 and it works beautifully with multiple users and no need to restart gdm...
