https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=396354 Summary: Empty .gconfd/saved_state file causes X to hang Product: openSUSE 10.3 Version: Final Platform: x86-64 OS/Version: openSUSE 10.3 Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: GNOME AssignedTo: bnc-team-gnome@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: grant@napc.com QAContact: qa@suse.de Found By: Customer After a power outage, my desktop for my primary user would launch, run for a minute or two, and then hang (typically after launching an application). After some debugging, I came to the realization that the saved_state file in /.gconfd folder was empty (the one for the user that I was using to debug was not). I moved this file out of the way, and everything began working just fine. There did not seem to be any indications in any of the logs that this was the case, nor did an strace of the X process indicate this (X was running at 99.6% CPU). Honestly, it was just by luck I discovered this, basically by doing an 'ls -alrt' in the home folder of the user, and then looking into that folder. I will make sure I can reproduce this, but i suspect that I can.
