Package: gnome-settings-daemon
Version: 3.0.3-3
Severity: normal
gnome-settings-daemon seems to be very sensitive to load. Admittedly my
PC is not that recent, but I should be able to run a VirtualBox
instance, do a bzr rebase and fetch my emails with offlineimap at the
same time without having my whole Gnome session disappear under me. I
don't have hard facts linking the crash to the load, but the behaviour
seems consistent with that hypothesis:
- no crash when I just idle on the computer;
- things start flickering (including gtk themes and virtual desktops)
when several apps become active at the same time; that includes
VirtualBox, Iceweasel with a JS-happy site, offlineimap, bzr,
minitube, and so on;
- if I'm quick and I kill one of those apps within a few seconds of the
flickering starting, I can usually keep my session running normally;
there's a gray zone where the gtk2 apps such as Xchat revert to an
ugly Gtk theme, but the rest of the session comes back to normal; if I
wait too long, the session goes down (sometimes with the "Oh no!
Something has gone wrong." screen).
My .xsession-errors.old file contains the following references to
gnome-settings-daemon:
,----
| ** (gnome-settings-daemon:5910): WARNING **: Failed to acquire
org.gnome.SettingsDaemon
| ** (gnome-settings-daemon:6837): WARNING **: Could not acquire name
`----
Then:
,----
| The application 'gnome-settings-daemon' lost its connection to the display :0;
| most likely the X server was shut down or you killed/destroyed
| the application.
`----
I should probably add that these crashes started happening to me only
since the Gnome 3 upgrade, and that I'm using the fallback session with
Metacity (and no Nautilus handling the desktop, if it helps).
Roland.
