Hi list, I am experiencing the same repeatable problem since my last update to GNOME 2.26. When I log in to my session, the gnome splash only shows "file manager" starting up. However, everything else starts up fine. Right from the beginning several buttons begin to appear on the gnome panel where active windows are (the taskbar??) with the title "starting file manager". However no corresponding windows appear. From then on, infinite windows seem to be created. Besides this, the desktop is completely usable. Then, at some point, the system reaches its maximum open files number, which of course renders it unusable. Taking a look at fstat yields infinite instances of "gam_server". Issuing the comand "pkill nautilus" stops the creation of new windows (actually no windows appear, just their buttons in the taskbar) and all previously created ones disappear. The desktop is completely usable at this point, including nautilus itself. Besides this, /var/tmp gets completely filled with "gfvs-username-*" directories, containing either "socket1" or "socket1" and "socket2". This behaviour occurs every time I log in to my account. This does not happen with other accounts of the system. I have tried finding related session information for nautilus, gvfs or something related but haven't been able to find why nautilus would try to open that many files. My system is: FreeBSD fionn 7.1-STABLE FreeBSD 7.1-STABLE #6: Tue Mar 10 00:03:22 CET 2009 root@:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/FIONN amd64 running GNOME 2.26 compiled on 13/4/2009. Thank you very much for your help! Fernandohelp
