Package: gnome
Version: 1:2.30+7
Severity: normal
Logged in with a Gnome session.
Tried to start the File Manager.
Infinite number of windows were quickly created on the taskbar below (i.e.
minimized), but no usable window was open. Clicking any of these on the taskbar
did not open a window.
Installed xfce desktop and using it now. Gnome still usable, but the CPU runs
at 100% all the time and the system runs slowly.
Rebooting does not solve the issue.
