I never had this error with Ubuntu Lucid.

But, now that I fresh installed Kubuntu 10.10 (from RC release) I get the error when turning on the laptop:

(process 347): Glib-warning **: getpwuid_r(): failed due to unknown user id (0)

After that message appeared, the whole system became inactive or frozen, so I had to force-shutdown physically.
When I turned it on again, the same message did not appear and let me log-in normally.
