Generation Please ensure you have packages with debug symbols installed. You can do this by following the instructions at DebuggingProgramCrash.
Make sure the GNU Debugger is installed. sudo apt-get install gdb Start the program under control of gdb: gdb <program> 2>&1 | tee ~/gdb-<program>.txt (gdb) handle SIG33 pass nostop noprint (gdb) set pagination 0 (gdb) run <arguments, if any> (If the program must run as root, use sudo gdb instead of just gdb above.) The program will start. Perform any actions necessary to reproduce the crash. If the program hangs but doesn't crash you can press ctrl+c in gdb while the program is frozen and then continue with the next step. Retrieve a backtrace: (gdb) backtrace full (gdb) info registers (gdb) x/16i $pc (gdb) thread apply all backtrace (gdb) quit Attach the complete output from GDB, contained in gdb-<program>.txt, in your bug report. You will find the file in your home directory /home/<username>/. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/193657 Title: gnome-settings-daemon crashed with signal 5 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-settings-daemon/+bug/193657/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
