Same here. I was going to simply remove the package, but it's tied to pretty much all the vital packages for the gnome desktop.
Within 5 hours my system becomes unresponsive. This morning, when trying to log back into my computer at work, my system was unresponsive. I had to just restart to clean everything up. The only way to keep the system stable is to loop-kill polkitd, since gnome insists on restarting the stupid thing. I have created a startup script that'll work as a band-aid fix to keep systems from crashing, but it's not a solution. As for thoughts about this being related to puleaudio... removal of the .pulse directory achieved nothing. Attempt to remove pulseaudio also results in the same crash. At this point, I'd have to say the best course of action is to roll back GNOME to the version used in 9.10, which worked. Right now, systems are unstable because of this. ** Attachment added: "startup script to loop-kill polkitd and keep system stable" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/49566129/polkit-killer -- polkitd service is using all my RAM https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/572813 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
