[06:19] <cody-somerville> bryce, I think I may have found a short term solution for Xubuntu
[06:19] <cody-somerville> I noticed that gnome-screensaver depends on dbus
[06:20] <cody-somerville> I had thought that dbus --auto-launch was launched by dbus --sh-syntax --exit-with-session
[06:20] <cody-somerville> but after reading the man page, I realized that it only occurs when something tries to access dbus and there is no session bus already started
[06:22] <cody-somerville> So the race is between the two dbus-launch processes, it causes the libxcb problems to rear its teeth.
[06:22] <jldugger> so throw in a sleep() call ;)
[06:22] <jldugger> that always fixes race conditions!
[06:22] <cody-somerville> :D
[06:23] <cody-somerville> jldugger, I figure I'll just start dbus-launch before gnome-screensaver :)
[06:24] <cody-somerville> Anyhow, I'm going to go restart X a few more million times to make sure that by commenting out the gnome-screensaver start I've stopped the hangs.

[09:04] <jldugger> i think i found another xcb casulty

[09:04] <ubottu> Launchpad bug 203157 in liferea "Liferea uses a lot of CPU at times" [Medium,Confirmed]
[09:05] <jldugger> cody-somerville, what did you file that dbus-launch against?
[14:09] <unggnu> hi all
[14:09] <unggnu> https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-intel/+bug/211897
[14:09] <ubottu> Launchpad bug 211897 in xserver-xorg-video-intel "Xorg crashed with SIGSEGV in xf86RandR12SetRotations()" [Medium,Incomplete]
[14:10] <unggnu> It should be marked as wishlist or won't fix and if the first one it should be marked for reporting upstream. Btw. isn't it a Xorg bug?
