[Bug 805789] Re: gnome-settings-daemon crashed with signal 5 in _XError()

 

For me, it happens in Parallels Desktop  about 30 sec. after login. With
unity-2d.

Basically the same as in 11.04 in VirtualBox :-(

Some things never change ...

Title:
  gnome-settings-daemon crashed with signal 5 in _XError()

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

Bug description:
  This comes up when I try to change a desktop wallpaper. I am using
  Gnome Shell.

  Steps:
  1) Click on the user name menu to the top right corner, and choose System Settings
  2) Choose Background, and click on the plus icon to the bottom left corner to add a new image from elsewhere
  3) File picker dialog comes up and navigate to a folder with images
  4) The dialog crashes together with System Settings, and no wallpaper is changed.
