[Bug 861114] Re: Apps crash during screen setup change

 

*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 860853 ***

After further tests, I confirm that a freshly-opened LibreOffice Writer
or Calc crashes systematically and immediately when changing screen
resolution (single-monitor setup), whether it open over part of the
screen, maximized, minimized, put on a different virtual desktop, and
whether the screen resolution is increased or decreased.

The default terminal emulator, Chromium, Gnome file manager,
Thunderbird, monitor setup app, xeyes, glxgear don´t seem to be
affected.

Title:
  Apps crash during screen setup change

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

Bug description:
  gnome-settings-daemon crashed with SIGSEGV in
  g_simple_async_result_complete()

  I was in single-monitor setup. I switched to dual-monitor through the display parameters dialog box, and validated. 
  As I was unsatisfied with the results, I canceled the change, and returned to the initial single-monitor setup.
  The crash may be due to any of the two monitor setup changes.

  I have encountered multiple application crashes, including LibreOffice
  Writer, while changing monitor setups since installing 11.10 beta.
  Every time, multiple windows are open, and one of them may crash.

  I have a 13' laptop display and a larger external display, used side-
  by-side ; so any monitor setup change involves resizing of the
  desktop.
