** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: gnome-settings-daemon
  
  This crash in gnome-settings-daemon 3.0.2-1ubuntu3 occurred twice
  (nearly identical, not very informative stack traces) in succession
  after logging in to a recently updated unity-2d session on an Oneiric
  i386 system. I think this crash may have occurred before the updates (if
  so, I don't think I reported it then). My other Oneiric i386 system,
  installed on identical (virtual) hardware and also fully updated, does
  not appear to be affected by this bug.
  
  This might be bug 788710. I was able to produce that bug on this same
  system, by running gnome-settings-daemon in a Terminal after the two
  instances of this crash. (I'll post in that bug with more details about
  the possible connection.) But I suspect they are not really the same
  bug, because they both occurred in the same session without any package
  management operations performed in between them, yet the stack trace in
  this bug is much worse.
  
- This also looks a bit like bug 779878. I haven't yet compared the stack
- traces.
+ This bug looks cursorily similar to bug 779878, since they are both
+ SIGSEGV crashes in gnome-settings-daemon with no function name (and thus
+ have the same apport-generated title). Since bug 779878's stack trace
+ has no symbol names or addresses and this stack trace has only the
+ address where the segfault occurred and no other information, they
+ cannot really be compared. Since there are no positive similarities
+ besides occurring spontaneously (other than that, all the similarities
+ between the two bugs are in the information that is *not* available
+ about them), and bug 779878 occurred in Maverick while this bug occurred
+ in Oneiric, I doubt they are the same bug.
+ 
+ Due to stack corruption, the stack trace here is very bad--hopefully
+ "Apport retracing service" will be able to process it and the core dump,
+ and yield better information.
