Success! I can easily and quickly reproduce the problem in Natty. It isn't a time-related issue at all, simply resource-related.
Setup: On Virtualbox 4.1.2, create a 32-bit Ubuntu VM with low memory (472MB in my case). Make sure your virtual hard-drive is at least 12GB so that Ubuntu allocates enough swap space to pull this off. Install 11.04 from CD and install all updates, then reboot. Vista-32 host if that makes any difference (which I doubt). Steps to reproduce: Open up LO writer, type a few words and save the file to disk. Leave the doc open, but minimized or otherwise inactive. Open up every other app you can think of. System Monitor reported >200MB swapped for me. Go back to LO and type a mis-spelled word, followed by a space. Wait until the disk stops churning. LO has crashed with this bug. Once set up, it takes me less than ten minutes to produce another instance. I stayed on the safe side and tried to replicate the most extreme of all reported conditions. It's likely that some of the steps I list are not actually required to reproduce this, but narrowing it down will take time. I am currently upgrading the VM to oneiric to determine whether or not this is still an issue there. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/745836 Title: soffice.bin crashed with SIGSEGV in cppu::throwException() To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/df-libreoffice/+bug/745836/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
