Description David Le Sage 2011-03-01 23:42:51 UTC
Description of problem:
After about 24 hours of use in either KDE or GNOME, I am suddenly dumped back at the GDM log in screen.  My previous session remains active when this happens.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
Fedora 15 Alpha.

How reproducible:
Happening about once per day.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. I am doing some "normal" work when I am suddenly dumped back at the GDM.  For instance, the last time  it happened, I had IRC, email, an XTerm, a text editor and a browser open. The XTerm was active and I was simply running "yum install maven." 

The machine had been running overnight with the screensaver active and I had been using it for a little under two hours this morning.

  
Actual results:
Suddenly dumped back at GDM.

Expected results:
Session should not be interrupted.

Additional info:
Previous session definitely remains running.  When I did ps aux|grep [application name], my IRC client, Firefox and so on from the previous session were still active and Maven was continuing to install. I presume that means the X Server itself is not crashing since all the apps would die if that were the case.

This is a completely fresh F15 alpha RC 2 installation (with daily yum updates.)

I have been dumped back at the gdm for the last few days at almost the same time of morning.  The first time I was running GNOME Shell and, thinking it was a GNOME 3 issue, I was using KDE this morning when it happened just a few minutes ago.
