[Bug 193657] Re: gnome-settings-daemon crashed with signal 5

 

Generation

    Please ensure you have packages with debug symbols installed. You
can do this by following the instructions at DebuggingProgramCrash.

    Make sure the GNU Debugger is installed.

    sudo apt-get install gdb

    Start the program under control of gdb:

    gdb <program> 2>&1 | tee ~/gdb-<program>.txt
    (gdb) handle SIG33 pass nostop noprint
    (gdb) set pagination 0
    (gdb) run <arguments, if any>

    (If the program must run as root, use sudo gdb instead of just gdb above.)
    The program will start. Perform any actions necessary to reproduce the crash. If the program hangs but doesn't crash you can press ctrl+c in gdb while the program is frozen and then continue with the next step.

    Retrieve a backtrace:

    (gdb) backtrace full
    (gdb) info registers
    (gdb) x/16i $pc
    (gdb) thread apply all backtrace
    (gdb) quit

    Attach the complete output from GDB, contained in gdb-<program>.txt,
in your bug report. You will find the file in your home directory
/home/<username>/.

Title:
  gnome-settings-daemon crashed with signal 5

Status in “gnome-settings-daemon” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: gnome-settings-daemon

  This might be a duplicate of #191674. I'm running Ubuntu (not Xubuntu) 8.04 on a Dell Inspiron 1520. I am currently running the XFCE desktop environment with compiz and avant-window navigator. 
  gnome-settings-daemon crashes when I try to play an audio CD in banshee. The system continues to run perfectly normally.
