Pedro, thanks for your pointers. I'm a nubie but was able to figure out that I needed to install nautilus-dbgsym to get a backtrace. If I run "gdb nautilus" and set a breakpoint at main I can get a backtrace with symbols, however if I unzip CoreDump.gz and run "gdb nautilus ~/Desktop/CoreDump" I get the following error: "Cannot access memory at address 0xb7fac658". Backtrace produces a similar error:
#0 0xb75ee837 in ?? () Cannot access memory at address 0xbfdfbb64 Unfortunately when I installed nautilus-dbgsym I think it also upgraded nautilus, so the symbols probably no longer match CoreDump at the time of the crash, and I haven't seen this crash repeat. Are we SOL or is there some way to recover a backtrace at this point? If you could give me a pointer to forcing load of old symbols or some other technique I will be happy to try again after work tomorrow (machine is at home). -- nautilus crashed with SIGSEGV https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/188537 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
