Hi all - I have the same issue with Precise 64 bit and the many .goutputstream files, dating back to the day I setup my workstation with Precise (clean install), and the lightdm discussion here rang a bell.

I have done some tweaking to lightdm, and I wonder if this is causging the problem...??? Happens on ALL my Precise machines, all of which are 64 bit, all of which I've done the exact same lightdm tweaks.

First, my lightdm.conf file...

[SeatDefaults]
user-session=gnome-shell
greeter-session=unity-greeter
greeter-hide-users=true
allow-guest=false

Then I have done the following to set a custom wall paper for lightdm (since hiding users in lightdm results in the default lightdm wallpaper at the login screen). I chose a wallpaper I wanted to use and just named it lightdm.jpg

sudo xhost +SI:localuser:lightdm
sudo su lightdm -s /bin/bash
gsettings set com.canonical.unity-greeter background '/usr/share/backgrounds/lightdm.jpg'

Now, I am not as technically minded as all you fine people, but I can surf and find solutions for things I want to accomplish, although granted, I do not unstand many of them as well as I should, but life and Linux is a learning process... always some new challenge to figure out, which is what makes Linux so enjoyable...

Anyway, hope my info helps, or at least makes a lightbulb go off for someone else...!!!
