Most of the times I unlock the screen from the screensaver gnome panel
crashes. As soon as I close the gnome bug report window gnome panel
resumes normally.

I doubt this is somewhat related but a few days ago some of the icons in the
gnome menu went missing, I'm not sure but I think they were mostly non-gnome
program lauchers. for example kompare and konqueror were disabled (I had to
enable them again with alacarte) while netbeans launcher was missing and I had
to recreate it.


Regards,


Paolo

Do you have a backtrace?

No, this is unrelated. This change was introduced so that the menu
remains unusable when KDE is installed.

Sorry for my late reply, I now have problems triggering the crash.

I disabled the "lock screen..." option in gnome screen saver settings to
check if it the problem was related to the password dialog. Now it
doesn't crash anymore, not even enabling the lock screen option again.

I attach a backtrace generated by bug buddy when it reported the bug to
gnome.org a few days ago. Since at that time I didn't install any of the
needed debug symbols I doubt it could be very helpful.

Additionally, after bug-buddy reported the bug I received an email
indicating that this bug is a duplicate of this:

https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=597914

I will keep monitoring this machine hoping to trigger the crash again,
if it happens I will post a full backtrace.


Have a nice day,


Paolo.

Hi Josselin,

I attach here a backtrace.

I still don't have all the necessary debug symbols, gdb complains it
can't find several debug symbols. I'm trying to download all of them but
 with my connection speed it will probably take until tomorrow.

If in the mean time you need me to do some more test or install a
specific debug package please let me know.

Have a nice day,

Paolo

Hi Josselin,

I downloaded all the dbg packages which are somewhat related to the
backtrace but I still can't find some of them (libbonobo-2.so.0,
libORBit-2.so.0, etc).

Please let me know if they are necessary, perhaps I can rebuild the
packages from source.

I noticed that the panel crashes more frequently if I keep a nautilus
window open on a directory with jpg images but it could just be a
coincidence.

I attach a new backtrace, it should be more complete than the last one.

Please, let me know if there is anything else I can do for you.

Have a nice day,

Paolo.
