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
