Public bug reported: I have a 12.04 system running on my desktop on an internal SSD drive. I just added a 500 Gig hard drive to the system and used the Disk Utility to format it and create a single partition on it. This all appeared to have worked, as I can read and write files on the new partition.
However, I can't seem use the Disk Utility to test the disk. If I bring up the "SMART Data" panel and then click on either "Refresh" or "Run Self-Test" then the Disk Utility dies and in the log I see something like: Jun 19 16:47:24 vector kernel: [ 1579.461730] palimpsest[3917]: segfault at 0 ip b6e8123a sp bff22100 error 4 in libgdu- gtk.so.0.0.0[b6e68000+4a000] ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 12.04 Package: gnome-disk-utility 3.0.2-2ubuntu7 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.2.0-25.40-generic-pae 3.2.18 Uname: Linux 3.2.0-25-generic-pae i686 ApportVersion: 2.0.1-0ubuntu8 Architecture: i386 Date: Wed Jun 20 16:27:52 2012 InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 12.04 LTS "Precise Pangolin" - Release i386 (20120423) ProcEnviron: TERM=xterm PATH=(custom, user) LANG=en_US.UTF-8 SHELL=/bin/bash SourcePackage: gnome-disk-utility UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) ** Affects: gnome-disk-utility (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: apport-bug i386 precise -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-disk-utility in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1015831 Title: palimpsest segfault To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-disk-utility/+bug/1015831/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
