Package: gnome-control-center
Version: 1:2.12.2-2
Followup-For: Bug #348809

Hi,

Same problem here. It doesn't happen when I use C locale when logging
into GDM.

I can see that there is a zombie xkbcomp process that is spawned from
gnome-settings-daemon:

robo at zero:~$ ps x |grep xkbco
12694 ?        Z      0:00 [xkbcomp] <defunct>
robo at zero:~$ cat /proc/12694/status
Name:   xkbcomp
State:  Z (zombie)
SleepAVG:       78%
Tgid:   12694
Pid:    12694
PPid:   12688
...
robo at zero:~$ ps 12688
PID TTY      STAT   TIME COMMAND
12688 ?        Sl     0:03 /usr/lib/control-center/gnome-settings-daemon --oaf-a

The same bug is reported against xkbcomp - #347767.

I can provide more information if necessary. Just e-mail me to the
address provided above.

Regards,
Robert
