Bug#499081: help please

[Tim Richardson]

I installed gnome-dbg, and for several days did not see this error.
I removed all the debug packages this morning, and it has re-appeared.

I run into it while right-click on a document.
When the freeze happens, no menu bars work and no documents can be
selected on the desktop. No icons on the panel that have been dragged
from a menu work, although panel applets like system monitor work. 


However, I can switch between open apps with ctrl tab.

Killing X and restarting gdm leads to a stalled login.

I can't find log messages anywhere but I will look again carefully
everywhere I can think of.

If anyone has some  hints I would appreciate it. At the moment, I need
to reboot; I can't find a way of getting my gnome session to restart.
