Some more experiments following a lead about liblsp.so. This was not (as I thought) part of the core system, but it belongs to the astrill package, which provides vpn client software. It so happens I was given a beta version of the client. On the machine that mysteriously re-started working with

Hi Michael, I have had problems getting the Ubuntu Apport system to work, it seems to cut out before uploading the files. It is not just this bug, either, I have encountered a number of crashes where I go through the process, and then instead of opening the browser page, nada. The crash reports I

Any idea what /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/liblsp.so is? This seems to be related to the crash, but I can't figure out where this comes from. Is it part of Ubuntu? My search of all files that Ubuntu provides across all packages is coming up empty. Am I doing something wrong, or is this a third party

It looks like freeaddrinfo is defined in libc.so.6, but on both of your systems it is being overridden by liblsp.so. Interestingly, this file isn't versioned, which is a bit odd. Is this LD_PRELOAD in use perhaps? Is this override intentional, or is this some kind of malware? Or am I completely

Hi Robie I think you may be onto something, but I don't have the knowledge to offer any concrete way forward. I have seen liblsp.so and libc.so.6 repeatedly referred to in the crash reports I am getting, but this could just be because these libraries are so basic to the system functioning. AFAIK

This is just a thought, and I have no real evidence, but the problems started on my systems on or around the time I installed Eclipse and Python 3.2 to do some exploratory software work, just learning my way around Python. I also installed Pygame, which had to be compiled and installed manually to

This problem started approximately 2 weeks ago. Before then, both laptops were using sshd with no problems. I cannot be exact about the date this started, but this leads me to suspect that a recently-changed 64-bit library package may be at the root. Also, I have tried using the dropbear package
