I find it highly unlikely that it's the clock still running that's keeping things going. Since it seems that people having this problem are running KDE, I think the simplest explanation is that the Gnome system sends a message to things like e-d-s when the user logs out (I don't know how: using d-bus or something maybe) telling it that the user logged out, then e-d-s stops. If you're not running Gnome base infrastructure, then this message is not sent and e-d-s is not stopped. All the above is pure guesswork on my part (since I do use Gnome, not KDE, this issue doesn't affect me). However, it seems to fit the reported behavior. What would be nice is if the freedesktop folks created a standard for window manager behaviors that included log out messages, so that all desktops could send them and all apps could receive them, regardless of which desktop they were designed for. -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Paul D.
