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.
Look like I compiled that one against the latest glibc patch. If you apply all of the Red Hat security patches this dependancy error will go away.
(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.
The only thing that jumps to mind is that the remote sound hacks are causing you problems. Do you have SOUND = Y set in your lts.conf?
There is a login script that sets the sound parameters up everytime you open up a new shell. This script makes a connection to the terminal to see if the Esound daemon is running. If that test connection hangs, it would have the terminal window in the maner you describe.
Try moving this profile script so that it doesn't automatically execute:
mv /etc/profile.d/ltsp-esound.sh /tmp/ltsp-esound.sh
