Hrm, that sounds like issues with gdm with fast-user-switching. I hope it at
least works again after a reboot.

Looking at the errors, it looks as if you don't have any more memory?

Eg:

> `/usr/lib64/gnome-panel/libnotification-area-applet.so: failed to map segment
> from shared object: Cannot allocate memory'
or

> error : Memory allocation failed : creating buffer

or

> ***MEMORY-ERROR***: gnome-panel[3410]: GSlice: failed to allocate 4080 bytes
> (alignment: 4096): Cannot allocate memory

So, hrm, this sounds quite bad, but if it's the issue, then it's not a GNOME
issue. How much memory do you have? You can use the "free" command in a
terminal.
