Hi all testers,

I'm running f22 with gdm as login manager and GNOME SHELL as desktop.
Now I saw that a lot of processes are running as gdm, although no other
"normal" user is logged in.

For example _gnome-session_ or _gnome-shell_ are running:

 ps -u gdm
  PID TTY          TIME CMD
 1243 ?        00:00:00 systemd
 1244 ?        00:00:00 (sd-pam)
 1246 tty1     00:00:00 gdm-wayland-ses
 1248 tty1     00:00:00 dbus-daemon
 1249 tty1     00:00:00 gnome-session
 1319 tty1     00:00:02 gnome-shell
 1402 tty1     00:00:00 gvfsd
 1406 tty1     00:00:00 gvfsd-fuse
 1449 tty1     00:00:00 Xwayland
 1459 tty1     00:00:00 at-spi-bus-laun
 1462 tty1     00:00:00 dbus-daemon
 1465 tty1     00:00:00 at-spi2-registr
 1470 ?        00:00:00 pulseaudio
 1492 tty1     00:00:00 ibus-daemon
 1496 tty1     00:00:00 ibus-dconf
 1498 tty1     00:00:00 ibus-x11
 1508 tty1     00:00:00 gnome-settings-
 1516 tty1     00:00:00 gvfs-udisks2-vo
 1530 tty1     00:00:00 gvfs-mtp-volume
 1534 tty1     00:00:00 gvfs-afc-volume
 1539 tty1     00:00:00 gvfs-gphoto2-vo
 1544 tty1     00:00:00 gvfs-goa-volume
 1547 tty1     00:00:00 goa-daemon
 1553 tty1     00:00:00 mission-control
 1598 tty1     00:00:00 ibus-engine-sim
    8 tty1     00:00:00 dbus-daemon

Anybody has an explanation for this?

Kind regards
