I remember how often gnome-settings-daemon used to crash in the beginning. And some versions of metacity. And occasionally nautilus. But the beauty of GNOME is that any of these components can crash. It's annoying, but not fatal. If gnome-session dies, it's another matter altogether *shudder* Let's not add more code to gnome-session besides session-management stuff, please! -- Gustavo J. A. M.
