I also have this problem but hadn't worked out it was related to bash-completion so thankful for your report. I was originally using it from ~/.bashrc which worked fine but recently moved it to /etc/profile and got the behaviour described. This happens when starting any session types. This is all that was logged - Feb 8 13:01:33 [kde(pam_unix)] session opened for user alex by (uid=0) Feb 8 13:01:34 [kde(pam_unix)] session closed for user alex Feb 8 13:01:34 [pam_console] getgrnam failed for cdwriter Feb 8 13:01:35 [kernel] Debug: sleeping function called from invalid context at mm/slab.c:1856 No idea what the cdwriter thing is or if it's connected. I'm using kde-base/kde-3.2.0, app-shells/bash-completion-20040101 and have tried with kernels 2.4.22-gentoo-r4, 2.6.1 and 2.6.2.
It's nothingo to do with that, see ~/.xsession-errors
this should have been fixed time ago... reopen if not.
