I'll have a go. First, this is the trace requested by David based upon his notes below:
4) Create a backtrace. Explained in more detail here [2] or just the steps you need to follow, bellow. 4a) Get the GNU Debugger (backtrace program) $ sudo apt-get install gdb 4b) Start the program under control of gdb and create the backtrace: $ gdb gnome-settings-daemon --no-daemon --debug 2>&1 | tee gdb-gsd-debug.txt (gdb) handle SIG33 pass nostop noprint (gdb) set pagination 0 (gdb) run <arguments, if any> If the program hangs but doesn't crash you can press ctrl+c in gdb while the program is frozen. >From the gdb prompt run the following commands: (gdb) backtrace full (gdb) info registers (gdb) thread apply all backtrace (gdb) quit Please post all the files generated by these commands (gstreamer- packages, gsd-error-log, backtrace) to Bug #358426.
