Comment 1 Andreas Proschofsky 2009-01-02 13:35:52 UTC

I might add: When I try to restart gnome-settings-daemon afterwards the whole X-Session crashes, don't know if this is related, though.

Comment 2 Jens Granseuer 2009-01-04 12:09:12 UTC

Do you get any output concerning an X error in your ~/.xsession-errors?

Also, what's the g-s-d version?

Comment 3 Andreas Proschofsky 2009-01-04 12:21:28 UTC

Nope, no relevant output in ~/.xsession-errors

gnome-settings-daemon version is 2.25.3

Comment 4 Sebastien Bacher 2009-01-12 13:14:27 UTC

There is several similar crash on launchpad, https://bugs.launchpad.net/gnome-settings-daemon/+bug/315974, some of bugs are crash when closing a laptop lid

Comment 5 Jens Granseuer 2009-01-24 11:41:53 UTC

Can you confirm whether this crash is related to bug 568713? The stacktrace looks different but the symptoms are certainly the same...

Comment 6 Andreas Proschofsky 2009-01-24 13:12:37 UTC

Looks like, crash is gone for me with SVN trunk :)

Comment 7 Jens Granseuer 2009-01-24 13:14:07 UTC
