No suggestion, I want to tell you that I have the same problem. First 
installed Ubuntu 13.04 and afterwards Trinity. Than, on a new partition, I 
installed Linux Mint and afterwards Trinity - for both distros same problem 
than described above.

I was able to track it down to --> in /etc/init.d/sendsigs it was not able to 
kill all processesbut I don't know which process gives the problem.

I try to investigate further.
