[Bug 555158] Re: glxinfo crashed with SIGSEGV in XF86DRIQueryExtension()
I found that you don't need uninstall fglrx (or nvidia, as that driver will ship its own libGL as well) to use mesa libGL again - you can use sudo update-alternative --set gl_conf /path/to/ld.so.conf To see the available GL configurations, run update-alternatives --list gl_conf For example, if you run one of the open source drivers such as intel, radeon or nouveau, update the gl configuration alternative to the mesa configuration. sudo update-alternative --set gl_conf/usr/lib/mesa/ld.so.conf Or, if you run fglrx run sudo update-alternative --set gl_conf /usr/lib/fglrx/ld.so.conf Nvidia ships its own GL configuration alternative, which works the same. After doing so, you need to run sudo ldconfig to reconfigure the dynamic linker run-time bindings. It may be better to do so when X is not running, as e.g. fglrx will crash if you switch to mesa while it is running. -- glxinfo crashed with SIGSEGV in XF86DRIQueryExtension() https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/555158 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 721106] Re: nm-applet crashes with assertion error in applet-device-gsm.c:769:gsm_get_secrets
SIM cards come PIN-locked by default over here, and there is no out-of- the box way of unlocking it without inserting it into a phone that is capable of doing so. NetworkManager does not store the PIN in the keyring, so there's a PIN prompt at every login. Actually, there are currently two PIN unlock dialogues, a small one, a larger, more descriptive one, and a small, plain one. Without auto-connect, I get the larger PIN unlock dialogue at login, and the smaller one if I try to unlock the device later on. Sometimes, it appears to me that both are created at once and one tries to close the other, but that does not impair functionality. The idea of setting the connection of auto-connect was to enter the PIN and have NM connect automatically afterwards, now it's two more clicks. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/721106 Title: nm-applet crashes with assertion error in applet-device- gsm.c:769:gsm_get_secrets -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Yes, without auto connect, the applet no longer crashes, which is of course a better solution than the workaround.
