When I log out from gnome 2.14 and the logout/shutdown window appears it hangs. After a few seconds he "Window not responding" window appears and I can terminate the window resulting in a gnome reload. Only way to logoff is to Ctrl-Alt-Backspace to console. I have removed all the .gnome* .gconf* files for making sure there was nothing left from 2.12 to result this. It was not.

what do you have in your gnome session? (Desktop -> Preferences -> Sessions -> Startup Programs ) does this happen if you just startx and then logout? also, please attach ps afux output before you try and logout. I can reproduce this with certain programs like grdesktop. Thanks.
After a weekend system check of revdep-rebuild and updating with new use-flag changes I no longer have this problem. I will report back if I encounter the problem again
Marking as fixed as per the reporter's comment.
