I ran g-s-d through valgrind for 2 days now, and the issues seems to have happened twice during the night, which is consistent with what I though was my experience without valgrind as well. May have something to do with turning off or locking the screen when the laptop is not in use - there is nothing else happening over night that I know of.
I piped the command through tee in order to also catch g-s-d's own debug log: G_SLICE=always-malloc G_DEBUG=gc-friendly valgrind -v --tool=memcheck --leak-check=full --num-callers=40 --log-file=valgrind.log gnome- settings-daemon debug | tee gnome-settings-daemon-with-valgrind- debug.log Both log files are attached ** Attachment added: "valgrind.log" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-settings-daemon/+bug/410534/+attachment/3340539/+files/valgrind.log -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-settings-daemon in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/410534 Title: gnome-settings-daemon crashed with SIGSEGV in g_slice_alloc() Status in “gnome-settings-daemon” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Binary package hint: gnome-settings-daemon this happened after killing pulseaudio which was configured before not to respawn automatically ProblemType: Crash Architecture: i386 Date: Sat Aug 8 03:12:09 2009 DistroRelease: Ubuntu 9.10 ExecutablePath: /usr/lib/gnome-settings-daemon/gnome-settings-daemon Package: gnome-settings-daemon 2.27.5-0ubuntu2 ProcCmdline: /usr/lib/gnome-settings-daemon/gnome-settings-daemon ProcEnviron: LANG=en_US.UTF-8 SHELL=/bin/bash ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 2.6.31-5.24-generic SegvAnalysis: Segfault happened at: 0x9c9f76 <g_slice_alloc+262>: mov (%edx),%ecx PC (0x009c9f76) ok source "(%edx)" (0x0000000f) not located in a known VMA region (needed readable region)! destination "%ecx" ok SegvReason: reading NULL VMA Signal: 11 SourcePackage: gnome-settings-daemon StacktraceTop: g_slice_alloc () from /usr/lib/libglib-2.0.so.0 g_list_append () from /usr/lib/libglib-2.0.so.0 ??
