Description Vladimir Benes 2011-12-06 12:54:32 UTC 
Description of problem:
when internal watchdog kills any of my jobs, something cleans environment so my console ownership things that was created in /var/run/console are cleaned and thus all following tests fails as dogtail needs console ownership (Xorg needs that).

Comment 1 Marian Csontos 2011-12-06 15:47:22 UTC 
As to why: local watchdog reboots the machine and I guess that explains why are the changes gone.
Comment 2 Nick Coghlan 2012-10-17 04:36:46 UTC 
Bulk reassignment of issues as Bill has moved to another team.
Comment 3 Dan Callaghan 2012-10-26 03:34:44 UTC 
Behaviour of a recipe after hitting local watchdog is best effort only, we can't really help if the cleanup actions affect subsequent tests.
