Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make
Ubuntu better. However, your crash report is either missing or
challenging to deal with as a ".crash" file. Please follow these
instructions to have apport report a new bug about your crash that can
be dealt with by the automatic retracer.

If you are running the Ubuntu Stable Release you might need to enable
apport in /etc/default/apport and restart.

Now open your file manager, navigate to your /var/crash directory and open the crash report you wish to submit.
If this fails you will have to open a terminal and file your report with 'ubuntu-bug /var/crash/_my_crash_report.crash' where _my_crash_report.crash is the crash you would like to report. If you get an error that you aren't allowed to access this report you will have to file it with 'sudo ubuntu-bug /var/crash/_my_crash_report.crash'.

I'm closing this bug report since the process outlined above will
automatically open a new bug report which can then dealt with more
efficiently. Thanks in advance for your cooperation and understanding.

Title:
  gnome-settings-daemon crashes when I close and re-open my laptop

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

Bug description:
  When I close my laptop lid and re-open, gnome-settings-daemon
  segfaults.  I saw similar bugs filed, but on much older versions of
  this software, so sorry if this is a dupe.  When this service crashes
  I get an odd icon set and my terminals go from a black background to a
  grey one.

  I don't have another system to ssh into this one with so I cannot tell
  whether the crash occurs when I close the lid or when I re-open it.  I
  have a fresh install of 11.10 with the most recent updates applied.

  This is what my syslog looks like:

  I have the proposed version installed but it did not solve this issue:

  gnome-settings-daemon:
    Installed: 3.2.1-0ubuntu3
    Candidate: 3.2.1-0ubuntu3
    Version table:
   *** 3.2.1-0ubuntu3 0
          500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ oneiric-proposed/main amd64 Packages
          100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
       3.2.0-0ubuntu5 0
          500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ oneiric/main amd64 Packages

  I can work-around this by restarting gnome-settings-daemon manually.
