[Bug 545397] Re: gnome-screensaver-gl-helper crashed with SIGSEGV in exit()
I have encountered a crash with symptoms matching this one, while running from the 10.04 32-bit live CD. After starting the live CD, a message displayed suggesting I could install the proprietary nvidia drivers, which I agreed to, selecting the recommended (latest) version - but when it asked me to reboot I realised that while using a live-cd (presumably without persistent storage) rebooting would not in fact cause those drivers to be loaded. Instead, I left the computer running without having rebooted. I left the computer running in this state; when I returned to it later, apport informed me of a crash. I submitted the report and thought no more about it. Later, I left the computer again, and returned to find the same error message displayed. I have attached the apport report. The computer I was doing this on was an NEC WA2510 with specification including 2 AMD Opteron 2218 2.6GHz processors and an nVidia Quadro FX 560 video card running two CRT monitors. ** Attachment added: Crash report log file http://launchpadlibrarian.net/50139901/_usr_lib_gnome-screensaver_gnome-screensaver-gl-helper.999.crash -- gnome-screensaver-gl-helper crashed with SIGSEGV in exit() https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/545397 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-screensaver in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

[Bug 545397] Re: gnome-screensaver-gl-helper crashed with SIGSEGV in exit()
Made some progress on this. My initial install of 10.04 beta 1 -- the first Lucid version I tried -- wouldn't do 1920x1200 video with an ATEN CS1734B KVM switch in place. The switch, although it supports monitor resolutions well in excess of this, prevents the detection of some monitor parameters and the display defaults to a lower resolution. This seems to have been the cause of some problems, for me anyway. Here http://ohioloco.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1435151 there's a reference to the driver being unable to identify the correct EDID info, which reminded me of this. First time around I ended up installing with a directly connected monitor (hardware drivers installed ok) and then getting xorg.conf configured to use 1920x1200 to eliminate black borders caused by the system seeing a lower resolution display. It was because I was having difficulty getting1920x1200 that I did a clean install with the monitor directly attached. Once I had the xorg.conf file figured out (or borrowed to be precise; see blog posts) I didn't think I'd need to unplug from the switch again. I thought I could just reuse that xorg.conf file. Wrong! And furthermore, I couldn't install the drivers until after I'd done a system update (not the case last time as far as I remember). Doing it the other way around led to a crash, and this time the drivers were installed automatically after the system update (nice). http://wombatdiet.net/2010/03/25/first-impressions-ubuntu-10-04/ http://wombatdiet.net/2010/03/19/fedora-12-and-the-aten-cs1734b/ I haven't been able to get xorg.conf adjusted for use with Fedora 12 yet (with a Samsung 2443NW); the Ubuntu config doesn't work. ATEN have previously blamed my monitor (a different one) for Ubuntu not getting the resolution right, but I now know and I've sent them xorg log files made with and without the switch in place, that what's detected is very different with the switch in use. Until today however, that didn't cause any crashes. Bottom line is, I think, not to use a KVM switch during installation, just in case. Message for Canonical: I would gladly give preference to Ubuntu certified hardware. -- gnome-screensaver-gl-helper crashed with SIGSEGV in exit() https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/545397 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-screensaver in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
