Re: [K12OSN] Re: server crash when client logs out of Gnome

[Robert Harrelson <robert harrelson iwpnews com>]

Hello all,

I thought I had identified the Evolution upgrade as the source of my 
problem, but that has been removed from the system and I just had 
another instance of the Gnome Panel freezing when I tried to log out.

Couple of possibly useful bits of information.

(1) I have installed all of the testing rpms, save one which gave me a 
dependency error (SDL_ttf-devel-2.0.6-1.k12ltsp.1.3.0.i386.rpm). I did 
this yesterday afternoon, and had the first failure today.

(2) One of the indications that something is up is that when I launch a 
terminal window on the client, it comes up "empty" -- that is there is 
not prompt ([robert IWP-LTS robert]$) and I cannot run commands. I think 
it is consistently true that when this happens in terminal, I cannot log 
out on the workstation.

Any help greatly appreciated.

Robert
