Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: gnome-panel
When I was changing the looks of my account I noticed that
gnome-appearance-properties wouldn't start. When I inserted the command in the
terminal it told me about a segfault. I tried to solve it with restarting the X
server, but after I logged in on my account I got an empty desktop. I switched
to tty1 and logged in with the root account and found out the segfaults in
messages which are attached to this bug report(although those are just 10
minutes old). I killed the gdm processes and executed 'M_ALLOC=0 startx'. Now I
had was logged in into gnome with root. It worked fine. But the same command by
my own account still caused segfaults. I tried startx without M_ALLOC=0 at root
and it still worked.
Can the username be the cause? My username is 'sense'
I files this bug against gnome-panel because that gave the most segfaults.
update-manager gave just one, do I have to file this against that too, or
should I pick the kernel?
'uname -a': Linux nott 2.6.22-14-generic #1 SMP Sun Oct 14 21:45:15 GMT 2007
x86_64 GNU/Linux
I'm running an up-to-date Gutsy amd64.
