Comment (by wad):

 It is not hard to find a machine that is exhibiting this behavior, I see
 it on about 20% of the first boots.

 The situation is this:

 A laptop is unwrapped from Quanta and powered up.

 It prompts for the nickname, and the user enters one.

 It then goes into a cycle of X going away (login prompt displayed), X
 starting up, then crashing again.

 A reboot or power cycle at this point clears the problem up (it does not
 appear on subsequent boots.)

 Deleting the /home/olpc/.sugar/default/config file and restarting may
 trigger the bug again (even on machines that didn't exhibit the behavior
 on first boot!)
