gnome-volume-manager and multiple users

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I'm running Gnome 2.10.2 on a GNU/Linux system. I have noticed a few problems with tasks coordinated by gnome-volume-manager when running with multiple users logged into different X displays simultaneously, when both users are running Gnome.

For example: in that situation, if I put in an audio cd, gnome-cd starts on both desktops. It only starts playing on one desktop, but the other process occupies all available CPU cycles until it's killed. Because it can lead to system instability, I consider this to be a relatively critical bug.

Another example: when loading a DVD, it is unpredictable which desktop will start totem to view the DVD.

Do these count as bugs? Is this being worked on? should I file a bug report? Is 2.12 going to be better?

I think the multiple-simultaneous-users feature is essential for Gnome to help supplant Windows when the Vista upgrade cycle comes around, and I want to assist in that project as much as I can.

Regards,
-Brandon
