Comment 3 for bug 353114

Hi Pedro

Yes I thought the extra process was normal but in my case, these additional processes hang around, and each time I do Game->New a new process starts but any previous processes are still running, see attached process list after starting 3 new games, the highlighted process is the starting one.

Starting Chess and immediately quitting without starting a game works as expected.
Starting Chess, playing a single game then quitting works but leaves the gnome-gnuchess process running.
Playing more than one game, resulting in 3 or more gnome-gnuchess processes hangs upon quitting.

These occur whether closing through the app menu or through the window control.

As mentioned in my initial post I'd tweaked a few settings prior to noticing this, so I tried undoing some of the changes, settings CONCURRENCY in /etc/init.d/rc from 'shell' back to 'none'. After this the behaviour changed, with the processes all hanging around as before but quitting now correctly shuts them all down, so this setting seems to be having an effect. Not sure why or how, hopefully I'm not leading you on a phantom bug chase because of my over-tinkering!
