On F19 with Mate desktop, sometimes after login 8 or 9 or even 10 copies of Caja (Mate File Manger) are started up.
Fred, I upgraded a test F17 system to F18 using fedora-upgrade, and it seemed successful. The next thing I did was to install MATE. After that I tried to upgrade from nouveau to NVIDIA drivers. After that I logged in using the MATE desktop, and saw the same as you are seeing.
I googled the issue and discovered that this has been a problem off and on since F16, with various fixes and re-apperance of the problem. The last resolution of the problem was still in updates-testing on F18 last I looked.
Most of the time not, but perhaps once every day or two this will happen. the rest of the time it's completely normal.
IIRC, it happens after the first MATE session login after system startup, though I was not able to limit it to that. Once it started happening for me, it continued to happen every time I logged out and logged back in again.
Nope, not for me. just now and then. I hate intermittent software problems! :)
I found these /var/log/messages entries at around the right time, but I'm not certain whether they are from login or the boot a small bit earlier:

Anybody got any clues?
Check out bugzilla 886029. It has some information, but not a definitive resolution, just yet....
Thanks, Kevin, I'll do that.
How's the world treating you these days? I'm "semi-retired", i.e., I voluntarily dropped from full-time to two days a week a little over two years ago, once I got to where I could get full SS benefits--I didn't want to take less than I could get by retiring early. I'm enjoying the five-day weekends!
