Description Paolo Maggi 2006-08-25 08:27:48 UTC

Testing gedit I have seen at least 3 times the crash described in the summary.

In the terminal I got the following:

GThread-ERROR **: file gthread-posix.c: line 160 (): error 'Device or resource busy' during 'pthread_mutex_destroy ((pthread_mutex_t *) mutex)'
aborting...
Multiple segmentation faults occurred; can't display error dialog

Sorry but I don't have a stack trace

Comment 1 Paolo Maggi 2006-08-25 08:36:52 UTC

Running it in gdb I got:

org.gnome.GnomeVFS.Daemon was not provided by any .service files

installation problem?

Comment 3 Paolo Maggi 2006-09-02 10:27:04 UTC

I don't think the crash is related to the warning since in some cases it does not crash. I think it could be related threads. But we need a response from some gnome-vfs guy.

Comment 10 Fabio Durán Verdugo 2010-11-26 05:28:30 UTC

Thanks for taking the time to report this bug.
However, you are using a version that is too old and not supported anymore. GNOME developers are no longer working on that version, so unfortunately there will not be any bug fixes for the version that you use.

By upgrading to a newer version of GNOME you could receive bug fixes and new functionality. You may need to upgrade your Linux distribution to obtain a newer version of GNOME.
Please feel free to reopen this bug if the problem still occurs with a newer version of GNOME.
