You'll need to do something like this first...
export DISPLAY=:0
then when you are in gdb, to start the program, enter: r <return>
All you did above was load the kdesktop_lock binary into GDB, then exited
GDB. ;-)

You'd be surprised how fast that login prompt shows up after an Xorg
crash. ;-) However for now we can proceed under the assumption that it
isn't one.
Debian
Wheezy, Amd64, Nvidia quadro card, drivers from vender, dual
monitors.
In my .xsession-errors files I can see numerous entries:
"tdecore] Deleting stale lockfile
/tmp/tde-pabiVcZK3y/kdesktop_lock_lockfile"
This crashes my X session, ~ 1 minute uptime, dumps me back to the
login
screen, totaly unworkable.
I have been working around this issue because it only happens on 2
workstations with the same hardware specs, and drivers from Nvidia.
I remove '/opt/trinity/bin/kdesktop_lock', I do not use screensaver
or
lock
desktop, this works..until an update replaces the kdesktop_lock
binary...this
will stop eventually.
I read bugs 2222 & 2230, re kdesktop_lock, I could run a backtrace if
that would help and if someone could give directions on howto. I will
file a bug
with the backtrace.
Well that's strange. When you mention it crashing your Xorg session
does
that mean the Xorg server itself crashes (i.e. instantaneous dump back
to
the command line) or that TDE terminates leaving Xorg still running? kdesktop_lock
is spawned from kdesktop, so any debugging would likely
involve terminating kdesktop and running kdesktop_lock under gdb from a
terminal. When I have an answer to the above question I'll get back to
you on how to debug further.
killed the 'kdesktop' process, ran 'gdb kdesktop_lock' in a terminal,
output
below.
