Hi, Josselin Mouette <j...@debian.org> (09/04/2011): > The upstream bug linked here ^ explains what is happening. It is not > a bug in gdm3, which properly waits for gnome-session to exit (which > in turns waits for gnome-settings-daemon) before launching anything.

If the startup is very > fast (which is usual for Xfce users or SSD owners), the new settings > daemon receives wrong information from the X server that a settings > daemon is still running, while actually it is not. since you kind of know what's happening, I'd appreciate if you could open a bug upstream directly: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/ product=xorg, component=Server/general (I have neither a SSD or a fast enough machine to reproduce this.)
