Description Roshan Kamath 2006-11-03 14:32:23 UTC

Steps to reproduce:
gnome-settings-daemon started crashing upon login after I upgraded to Fedora Core 6.

Note: This appears similar to Bug 369256, but has some additional information in the stack trace. Hence, I raised it as a new bug.

Comment 2 Roshan Kamath 2006-11-04 07:10:22 UTC

Below is another trace - but this time with libxklavier-debuginfo installed. The backtrace appears to be slightly different.

Also, there is Bug 370038 for a similar crash in keyboard preferences. The root-cause seems to be libxklavier in both cases. Just FYI so that information can be shared across teams.
