I've got a bizarre GNOME 3 issue on my openSUSE 12.1 RC2 laptop. I usually am in the Chrome browser, but it fails in Chromium as well. At seemingly random times, I'll browse to a web site or activate some JavaScript widget and the screen will suddenly drop back to a login prompt! I think I can poke around and find a sequence of operations that will trigger this, but what do I have to do to get log files / crash dumps to figure out what's happening?
could be a Xorg crash. Check /var/log/Xorg.0.log
if there is a segfault, you can get a useful backtrace by following http://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Bugreport_X#How_to_test_the_latest_Xorg
It looks normal - no segfaults, anyhow. I'm guessing GNOME at this point. Are there log files from GNOME somewhere? I did push ulimit up - with luck I'll get a core dump and can find a guilty / victim process.
