Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. It sounds like some part of the system has crashed. To help us find the cause of the crash please follow these steps:
1. Run these commands: journalctl -b0 > journal.txt journalctl -b-1 > prevjournal.txt and attach the resulting text files here. 2. Look in /var/crash for crash files and if found run: ubuntu-bug YOURFILE.crash Then tell us the ID of the newly-created bug. 3. If step 2 failed then look at https://errors.ubuntu.com/user/ID where ID is the content of file /var/lib/whoopsie/whoopsie-id on the machine. Do you find any links to recent problems on that page? If so then please send the links to us. Please take care to avoid attaching .crash files to bugs as we are unable to process them as file attachments. It would also be a security risk for yourself. ** Changed in: gnome-control-center (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-control-center in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2054907 Title: GNOME Control Center (Settings app) crashes every now and then, especially when switching sections. Status in gnome-control-center package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: On Ubuntu 23.10 (Mantic), GNOME Control Center (the Settings app) keeps crashing every now and then when I am using it; often happening when I switch sections. One of the sections which takes the blame is the Privacy page, which occasionally has a tendency to lock up the Settings app and crash it; at times erroneously showing Thunderbolt settings, even though Thunderbolt does not exist on my system.
