I had not had any problems of this nature until I tried updating some packages this morning. Then this bug hit me. I was seeing 100% CPU utilization and strace showed a continued access to a futex. Sorry I don't have a package update list since I had to revert the system immediately (it is a production system). The system had previously been updated on May 24th. This update was a new kernel, and some X updates. Sorry I don't have more concrete information to report.
I do have VirtualBox installed on this machine, but it was inactive when the bug occurred. I also am using VNC to connect to this computer remotely, and the problem seemed to occur shortly after connecting. Not sure if that is related or not. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/969359 Title: gnome-settings-daemon consumes 100% cpu To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-settings-daemon/+bug/969359/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
