Comment 94 for bug 984785

I have this bug with my Dell M1330 laptop that is running Xubuntu 12.04 64bit with Thunar as my file manager. It appears that it has nothing to do with file manager. I remember when I fresh installed, I had some problems with lightdm causing slow booting that I fixed with a patch: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1970326&page=5. All of my .goutstream-* files seem to be associated with shutdown. For now I'm just periodically deleting the files when I notice a stack of them, but it would be nice to get a real fix for this. I'd rather not autorun a script to delete these benign files, but that is a temporary workaround. Hope this information helps in the quest to nail down this minor issue.
