Title: gnome-settings-daemon crashed with SIGFPE in g_main_context_dispatch() Status in “gnome-settings-daemon” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Reproduction: start Oneiric from live CD; open System Settings from top right system menu; start "Screen". Screen settings show up, then after a few seconds the widgets of the window and the top panel change for a moment, then the crash report window pops up. The settings window stays running in the process. I noted that the system can reach a state, where the above behavior changes, though I do not yet know what steps one should take to reach the changed state. Maybe if I start with some other part of System settings instead of Screen? UPDATE: OK, after some more testing it seems that: - at the 1st trial right after boot: the widgets of the window and the top panel change, then change back, gnome-settings-daemon crashes, then the settings window remains in place. - at the 2nd, 3rd or later trials to reproduce, the widgets & top panel _may_ remain in their changed state and the crash may not occur. After the first occurence of this behavior, it becomes standard, so I have to reboot to reproduce the crash again.
