Comment 1 Matthew Mosesohn 2011-10-17 18:24:15 UTC
This is intermittent.  The issue occurs only a few times per month for some CSB users, but it goes away after rebooting.  There is no valuable info in ~/.xsession-errors

Comment 3 RHEL Program Management 2011-10-17 18:49:00 UTC
This request was evaluated by Red Hat Product Management for
inclusion in the current release of Red Hat Enterprise Linux.
Because the affected component is not scheduled to be updated
in the current release, Red Hat is unfortunately unable to
address this request at this time. Red Hat invites you to
ask your support representative to propose this request, if
appropriate and relevant, in the next release of Red Hat
Enterprise Linux. If you would like it considered as an
exception in the current release, please ask your support
representative.
