I had a similar problem after updating a box to gutsy. Example of apport.log: apport (pid 15562) Thu Aug 23 16:13:58 2007: called for pid 15414, signal 11 apport (pid 15562) Thu Aug 23 16:13:58 2007: executable: /usr/lib/gnome-control-center/gnome-settings-daemon (command line "/usr/lib/gnome-control-center/gnome-settings-daemon") apport (pid 15562) Thu Aug 23 16:13:58 2007: apport: report /var/crash/_usr_lib_gnome-control-center_gnome-settings-daemon.1000.crash already exists and unseen, doing nothing to avoid disk usage DoS apport (pid 15623) Thu Aug 23 16:14:00 2007: called for pid 15548, signal 11 apport (pid 15623) Thu Aug 23 16:14:00 2007: executable: /usr/lib/gnome-applets/trashapplet (command line "/usr/lib/gnome-applets/trashapplet --oaf-activate-iid=OAFIID:GNOME_Panel_TrashApplet_Factory --oaf-ior-fd=25") apport (pid 15623) Thu Aug 23 16:14:00 2007: apport: report /var/crash/_usr_lib_gnome-applets_trashapplet.1000.crash already exists and unseen, doing nothing to avoid disk usage DoS apport (pid 15669) Thu Aug 23 16:14:01 2007: called for pid 15585, signal 11 apport (pid 15669) Thu Aug 23 16:14:01 2007: executable: /usr/lib/gnome-control-center/gnome-settings-daemon (command line "/usr/lib/gnome-control-center/gnome-settings-daemon")
Although its probably unrelated I had noted that this warning came up during the dist-upgrade "X Error: BadDevice, invalid or uninitialized input device 158". It seems to have been caused by my forgetting to remove Virtualbox. I removed virtualbox, auto-removed and a large set of gdm-related files were removed. No more crashing gdm settings daemon and trashcan applet. I've attached the crash log referenced in apport. Let me know if I can be of further assistance. ** Attachment added: "_usr_lib_gnome-control-center_gnome-settings-daemon.1000.txt" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/8963710/_usr_lib_gnome-control-center_gnome-settings-daemon.1000.txt -- gnome-appearance-properties crashed with SIGSEGV https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/123207 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
