Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: rhythmbox
This seems very similar to bug 544880 except that I'm not getting the same
error message.
All I get are blank error messages (one for each failed transfer I believe) and
then the computer is frozen completely.
Steps to reproduce:
1. Connect an iphone with empty music library by USB
2. Open Rhythmbox
3. Attempt to transfer a large number of files to the phone by drag and drop
(in my case a little over 1200).
4a. Wait for Rhythmbox to crash, watch an explosion of blank error messages and
find computer completely inoperable...
4b. On occasion the computer remains operable but Rhythmbox becomes a zombie
and cannot be killed (except by killing the main instance of 'init').
Using metacity rather than compiz reduces but does not eliminate the
possibility of freeze.
Further attempts to transfer music will immediately result in another crash and
freeze until the library has been deleted from the phone.
