Re: problems restarting gnome

[Glenn Mason <GlennM gui com au>]

If you ctl-alt-backspace, you are killing the Xserver ... so Gnome 
doesn't have a chance to shutdown gracefully.  Thus, there are some 
daemon processes left running, but unattached to anything.  Then when 
Gnome attempts to restart, it can't run "new" daemon processes because 
the old ones are hogging all the appropriate sockets and resources.

Does this happen if you exit Gnome the "normal" way?
