Ian Proudler, thank you for reporting this and helping make Ubuntu better. However, your crash report is missing. Please follow these instructions to have apport report a new bug about your crash that can be dealt with by the automatic retracer. First, execute at a terminal: cd /var/crash && sudo rm * ; sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get -y upgrade && sudo service apport start force_start=1
If you are running the Ubuntu Stable Release you might need to enable apport in /etc/default/apport and restart. Now reproduce the crash, then open your file manager, navigate to your /var/crash directory and open the crash report you wish to submit. If this fails you will have to open a terminal and file your report with 'ubuntu-bug /var/crash/_my_crash_report.crash' where _my_crash_report.crash is the crash you would like to report. If you get an error that you aren't allowed to access this report you will have to file it with 'sudo ubuntu-bug /var/crash/_my_crash_report.crash'. If you run the command against the crash report and it does nothing, you may be affected by https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/apport/+bug/994921 . In order to WORKAROUND this, one would need to open the following file via a command line: gksudo gedit /etc/apport/crashdb.conf and comment out the line: 'problem_types': ['Bug', 'Package'], by changing it to: # 'problem_types': ['Bug', 'Package'], Save, close, and try to file the crash report again via: ubuntu-bug /var/crash/_my_crash_report.crash I'm closing this bug report since the process outlined above will automatically open a new bug report which can then dealt with more efficiently. Thank you for your understanding.

I did not complete the session and quit Bombono-DVD but did not reboot the computer. On restarting Bombono-DVD I opened the saved project file using Project -> Open. Instead of reloading the previous session Bombono-DVD crashed. I tried the same procedure with the 'Save as ' command and got the same result. I tried the rebooting and loading both the 'same' and 'save as' file and got the same result. $ lsb_release -rd Description: Ubuntu 13.04 Release: 13.04 $ apt-cache policy bombono-dvd bombono-dvd: Installed: 1.2.1-0ubuntu4 Candidate: 1.2.1-0ubuntu4 Version table: *** 1.2.1-0ubuntu4 0 500 http://gb.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ raring/universe amd64 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status The content of one of the .bmd files as follows: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <AProject BmdVersion="1.2.1" Version="2"> <!--This document is for "Bombono DVD" program--> <Globals PAL="1" First-Play=""> <DefMenuParams Aspect="2"> <Resolution x="720" y="576"/> </DefMenuParams> </Globals> <Medias> <Media Name="Summer2012" Path="../Videos/Summer2012.mpg" Type="Video"> <Parts/> <PostAction Type="0" Ref=""/> <DVDTransData DVDDims="0" VRate="0" CustomFFmpegOptions=""/> <SubtitleData Path="" DefShow="0" Encoding=""/> </Media> </Medias> <Menus> <Menu Name="Menu 1"> <Params Aspect="3"> <Resolution x="720" y="576"/> </Params> <Background SpanType="0" Color="#000000ff" BGRef=""/> <MotionData IsMotion="0" Duration="20" IsStillPicture="0" IsInternalAudio="1" AudioRef="" ExtAudio=""> <PostAction Type="0" Ref=""/> </MotionData> <SubpicturePalette Selected="#fff00080" Activated="#ff006c80"/> <MenuItems> <MenuItem Name="" Poster="" HighlightBorder="0" Type="Frame Item" Ref="Media.0" PlayAll="0"> <FrameTheme Name="classic" IsIcon="0"/> <Placement lft="72" top="58" rgt="202" btm="162"/> </MenuItem> </MenuItems> </Menu> </Menus> </AProject> To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg/+bug/1193791/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
