GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 521208
Restarting HAL causes rhythmbox to freeze up and consume 100% CPU
Last modified: 2008-08-14 23:21:58 UTC
Steps to reproduce: 1. Run Rhythmbox 2. Restart hal-daemon Stack trace: (gdb) bt full
+ Trace 191757
Other information: Using 0.11.4
Actually, it looks like this isn't caused by restarting hal alone--but restarting the whole system-wide dbus daemon triggers it.
