Description of problem: I have upgraded my workstation from RH8 to RH9. When I try to start gnome session, it restarts X.I have found followin error logs in .xsession-errors: SESSION_MANAGER=local/anpa003.net.autocom.pl:/tmp/.ICE-unix/1186 Gnome-Message: gnome_execute_async_with_env_fds: returning -1 Gnome-Message: gnome_execute_async_with_env_fds: returning -1 Gnome-Message: gnome_execute_async_with_env_fds: returning -1 The program 'gnome-session' received an X Window System error. This probably reflects a bug in the program. The error was 'BadLength (poly request too large or internal Xlib length erro'. (Details: serial 3937 error_code 16 request_code 155 minor_code 20) (Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously; that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it. To debug your program, run it with the --sync command line option to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error() function.) The application 'magicdev' lost its connection to the display :20.0; most likely the X server was shut down or you killed/destroyed the application. When I try failsafe session and run gnome-panel, metacity and nautilius manualy everything works fine. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Everytime Steps to Reproduce: 1. Upgrade form rh8 to rh9 2. Start gnome session 3. Actual results: Expected results: Additional info: my workstation is: AMD K6 350MhZ 168 MB RAM ATI Rage 128 16 MB

Hi, This bug is quite old now. Given the lack of activity on this report and the likelihood that this bug has already been fixed, I am going to close it. If you encounter the problem discussed in this report with Fedora Core 3 or a recent version of gnome feel free to reopen. Thanks
