Title: General, unspecific system problem Status in upower package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Occasionally I get a small window with some unspecified text along the lines of "A system error occured" together with two buttons, "Ignore" and "Report". Neither of these buttons does something noticeable, much less there is some indication on what the problem might be. So I investigated myself and found this in /var/log/syslog: Nov 4 17:26:17 (machine name) systemd[1]: upower.service: Main process exited, code=dumped, status=6/ABRT Nov 4 17:26:17 (machine name) systemd[1]: upower.service: Unit entered failed state. Nov 4 17:26:17 (machine name) systemd[1]: upower.service: Failed with result 'core-dump'. Nov 4 17:26:17 (machine name) systemd[1]: upower.service: Service hold-off time over, scheduling restart. This is a pure desktop, so I guess a battery loading service has no business here. It's running Ubuntu 15.10 AMD64, installed in about 2010 and updated for each release since then. Except for this occasional error report (1 or 2 daily), the machine apparently works fine. $ uname -a Linux piccard 4.2.0-17-generic #21-Ubuntu SMP Fri Oct 23 19:56:16 UTC 2015 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux $ lsb_release -rd Description: Ubuntu 15.10 Release: 15.10 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/upower/+bug/1513149/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : desktop-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
