Hi
This bug affected me too. I made a first backup with Grsync. Afterwards, I saw some warning messages informing me that little disk space was remaining. I didn't understand why first, until I had to search for the reason when I couldn't enter my Gnome session. At that time, it was asked me to log in while turning on the computer, together with a warning message about my "GNOME energy manager" ("gestionnaire d'énergie" in French) that was uncorrectly installed on my computer.
I recovered my Gnome session when I could definitely erase the three folders (.ful) containing, among other light files, compacted files (.tgz) issued, I think, from Grsync that couldn't copy backups to my external hardware because it was not linked to my computer. But this is not the problem here...
I could erase those files reaching them through the installation CD.
In my case, it has not been possible even to log in the xterm session.
Cheers
