I just encountered this bug myself. I had 4 different terminals open on different workspaces. The workspace I was in had 1 terminal open with 2 tabs, I clicked and dragged the right tab and moved it to the left one, I let go and then clicked on the display to deselect the tab. I entered a command and then did an alt+2 and pressed enter and then all of my terminals disappeared. The following line showed up in my kern.log - gnome-terminal[1963]: segfault at 20 ip b709caca sp bfbf8f30 error 4 in libgobject-2.0.so.0.3000.0[b708b000+4d000]
This is the first time gnome-terminal has crashed on me. Two of my coworkers, since upgrading to Ubuntu 11.10, have also encountered this issue after doing some tab management. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-terminal in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/876916 Title: gnome-terminal segfault error 4 libgobject-2.0.so Status in “gnome-terminal” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: During routine usage of gnome-terminal, I experienced a segfault/crash of the app. I've never observed a crash in terminal, so it was very surprising. Unfortunately, the only log I received was this: [243052.154280] gnome-terminal[1839]: segfault at 8 ip b6f1daca sp bfa91790 error 4 in libgobject-2.0.so.0.3000.0[b6f0c000+4d000] There were no cores, and apport was disabled (the default setting) so nothing meaningful was captured. I had 3 windows open with multiple tabs in each. One window contained a screen session. The error seemed to occur while I was using vi and editing a file. I don't know if this is reproducible, but hopeful the ip/sp info may be of some use.
