[Bug 74682] Re: Mysterious segfault of many GNOME programs makes gnome-session unresponsive
Thanks, closing this as fixed now. gnome-session doesn't user libgnomeui now anyway. ** Changed in: gnome-session (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete = Fix Released -- Mysterious segfault of many GNOME programs makes gnome-session unresponsive https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/74682 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

We were wondering if this is still an issue for you. Can you try with the latest Ubuntu release?

It looks like this was probably fixed by removing the segv handler from libgnomeui: libgnomeui 2.19.1 * Fix crash in thumbnailing code (#452907, Felix Riemann) * Use xdg-user-dirs to get Destkop directory shortcut (#459854, Luca Ferretti) * Remove segv handler (Fernando Herrera) * Add orientation tag support to the thumbnailer (#440978, Michael J.

I also have this bug with an up to date gutsy. When I choose System » Quit, the full X session hangs for about one minute. Then I get the dialog without hibernation and standby options. This happens ~9 times of 10. I find every time this in .xsession-errors: ** (x-session-manager:5613): WARNING **: Couldn't connect to PowerManager Did not receive a reply.

I got a similar dbus crasher on my desktop and opened bug #74946 about it, reassigning that one to gnome-session for the segv handler lock ** Changed in: Ubuntu Sourcepackagename: None = gnome-session Importance: Undecided = High Assignee: (unassigned) = Ubuntu Desktop Bugs -- Mysterious segfault of many GNOME programs makes gnome-session unresponsive https://launchpad.net/bugs/74682 -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

[Bug 74682] Re: Mysterious segfault of many GNOME programs makes gnome-session unresponsive
I noticed this behaviour as well (up to date Edgy). Several hours before noticing the issue, gaim crashed. At some point during the day (perhaps at the time of the gaim crash) I also had some sort of error/bug reporting dialog (which I don't think was the Gnome bug buddy), which I canceled. Not sure if either of these are related. -- Mysterious segfault of many GNOME programs makes gnome-session unresponsive https://launchpad.net/bugs/74682 -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

I also had this problem. At the end of the day, I tried to hibernate only to discover I couldn't open any GNOME applications or menu items including System - Quit. I'm afraid I can't contribute any useful diagnostics because I was in a hurry, so I simply hard power-downed the laptop. But, FWIW, I had cancelled a bug buddy invocation after galeon crashed for me, earlier in the day. -- Mysterious segfault of many GNOME programs makes gnome-session unresponsive https://launchpad.net/bugs/74682 -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

I'm seeing strong indications that debugging with gdb is broken due to the kernel used on this system; I can repeat the Failed to read a valid object file image from memory error with any process I launch, and also on my Feisty system with 2.6.19. This problem does not occur with a stock Edgy system running 2.6.17, so backtraces from crashing programs on stock Edgy systems would be helpful in diagnosing this problem. -- Mysterious segfault of many GNOME programs makes gnome-session unresponsive https://launchpad.net/bugs/74682 -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

I was able to reproduce this by launching lots of gnome-help instances, exhausting all of my machine's memory, observing various processes being killed, killall gnome-help, manually closing/cancelling various bugbuddy windows, and then observing that I can't run gnome programs.
