[natty] random session restarts

[Ярослав Почернин]

Binary package hint: gnome-session

Since beta 2 I've begun experiencing random session restarts which return me back to the login screen. All the work I've been doing is left unsaved. I have no idea what package this bug belongs to and which further information I should provide. My computer is Toshiba NB100 (Ubuntu Certified).

Thank you for your bug report, could you add your .xsession-errors to the bug and your Xorg.0.log? It likely either the xorg server or the session segfaulting

[Sebastien Bacher (seb128)]

thank, there is no crash in those though, can you add Xorg.0.log.old as well? would be better to add those after getting the issue so they are the versions which list the bug

[Marco Giannini (marco-giannini)]

Same bug for me

[Abhishek Udupa (abhishek-udupa)]

I can confirm this as well. When it's stable, it runs for days. Other times, it restarts within minutes of booting up

[Abhishek Udupa (abhishek-udupa)]

Forgot to add the xsession-errors. Here it is!

[Abhishek Udupa (abhishek-udupa)]

I'd be happy to provide any more information that might be required to take this bug out of the "Incomplete" state and leading to an eventual fix.

[Sebastien Bacher (seb128)]

could you add the Xorg.0.log and Xorg.0.log.old just after getting the issue?

[Ярослав Почернин (yaroslav-pochernin)]

Next time I get it I will

[Abhishek Udupa (abhishek-udupa)]

Here're the Xorg logs. The problem just occurred two minutes ago!

[Ярослав Почернин (yaroslav-pochernin)]

here are my logs right after the restart

[Arianit Dobroshi (arianit)]

I have same thing. I can't really trace it. Other than watching YouTube on Chrome, I think.

[Marco Giannini (marco-giannini)]

Some news?

[Hannu Leinonen (hleinone)]

Affecting me too, the logs attached.

[Michael Mattison (mattisonma)]

I have the exact same problem.

I am facing the same problem. I upgraded from 10.10 to 11.04, since last few weeks facing this problem. In ubuntuforums.org they say its a kernel issue (2.6.38.8). Please help, the problem is as explained in the start note of the bug.
