I encountered this bug when I quit the installer during in installation of the quantal-desktop-i386.iso in VirtualBox on an Ubuntu 12.04 host. As also indicated in comment #7 also to me it was indicated that bug #1008818 was the issue.
Note 1: The reason to quit the installer was the fact that it indicated I was not connected to the internet. However, when opening Firefox it turned out I was connected. Note 2: The issue did not appear again when restarting the installer, so maybe quiting it was the cause? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/946124 Title: [power]: gnome-settings-daemon crashed with SIGSEGV in gnome_rr_screen_get_dpms_mode() To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-desktop3/+bug/946124/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
