GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 545457
gdmsetup crashed with SIGSEGV in g_unix_mount_guess_should_display()
Last modified: 2008-09-13 11:35:31 UTC
the bug has been opened on https://launchpad.net/bugs/252942 "gdmsetup crashes on start. I also encountered another problem with apport. It would report that firefox is not responding when firefox is open. I had to close firefox and then apport opened it anew.
+ Trace 204155
Would be interesting to know what mount_path causes the problem and why g_unix_mount_at doesn't find a mount for it. I've committed a fix that should prevent the crash. 2008-07-30 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com> Bug 545457 – gdmsetup crashed with SIGSEGV in g_unix_mount_guess_should_display() * gunixvolumemonitor.c (get_mount_for_mount_path): Don't crash if no mount is found.
the stacktrace has a "_g_mount_get_for_mount_path (mount_path=0x1f44a70 "//", cancellable=0x0)" which is weird, I'll ask the submitter if he can trigger the bug and give some details
