upstream think they fixed the issue with http://git.gnome.org/browse
/gnome-settings-
daemon/patch/?id=ff5b65349a9e377d17946ccb29b764f19c3bef7e
I've uploaded that fix to raring and backported to quantal, once the fix
is confirmed we will backport to the LTS as well
** Changed in: gnome-settings-daemon (Ubuntu Quantal)
Importance: Undecided => High
** Changed in: gnome-settings-daemon (Ubuntu Quantal)
Status: New => In Progress
** Changed in: gnome-settings-daemon (Ubuntu)
Status: Confirmed => Fix Committed
** Description changed:
- Check comments 33 and 107 for a possible workaround.
+ Impact:
+ gnome-settings-daemon uses 100% cpu for ever in some cases
+
+ Test Case:
+ Seems to happen sometimes after docking or connecting with vnc, try to
connect to the machine using a vnc client a few times and check there is no
numlock cycle and cpu usage loop starting
+
+ Regression potential:
+ The numlock state could be wrongly set,restored on login in some cases
Original message:
-----------------
I don't know how to reproduce this bug, but after varying amounts of
normal usage of my laptop, I notice gnome-settings-daemon is consuming
100% (approx) CPU.
I am not sure how to restart gnome-settings-daemon, I tried opening a
terminal and running gnome-settings-daemon again but this crashes my
system - my external monitor switches off and my laptop locks up. I am
able to reboot with SysRq+REISUB.
Sorry I cannot provide more information - it happens twice now, maybe
someone can tell me how to get more information for the next time this
happens.
