To try and reproduce this bug I went into nsswitch.conf and see which line caused this and by editing the line to:
hosts: files dns [NOTFOUND=return] dns After restart and after I logged in, the screen was just black. So i had to go into the file and edit that out - restart and the system started up fine. I made one more change to it and now the line is: hosts: files dns It seems to have made my connection alot more stable but I'm not going to try and mess around with it anymore, it seems that I may have some disk errors on my brand new hard drive. By the way, this is the conf file for debian avahi-daemon I think. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to wpa in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1234357 Title: wpa_supplicant crashed with SIGSEGV Status in “wpa” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: For what i know, i for a moment or more couldnt control my pc and that that happened not once then firefox closed and my network manager was disconnected. i with root priviledges and rfkill fixed it twice and when i restarted firefox for searching what was the"linksys" open wireless connection that n.manager showed me ,i lost it.accrding to my point of view, i was being tracked. the point is that my desktop sharing options is totally disabled and i think through firefox.thats all folks. forgot ,Linux black-Inspiron-1018 3.11.0-11-generic #17-Ubuntu SMP Tue Oct 1 19:38:47 UTC 2013 i686 i686 i686 GNU/Linux ProblemType: Crash DistroRelease: Ubuntu 13.10 Package: wpasupplicant 1.0-3ubuntu2 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.11.0-11.17-generic 3.11.3 Uname: Linux 3.11.0-9-generic i686 ApportVersion: 2.12.5-0ubuntu1 Architecture: i386 Date: Wed Oct 2 11:14:22 2013 ExecutablePath: /sbin/wpa_supplicant InstallationDate: Installed on 2013-06-17 (107 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 13.10 "Saucy Salamander" - Alpha i386 (20130617) MarkForUpload: True ProcCmdline: /sbin/wpa_supplicant -B -P /run/sendsigs.omit.d/wpasupplicant.pid -u -s -O /var/run/wpa_supplicant ProcEnviron: SegvAnalysis: Segfault happened at: 0x8102980: mov (%edi),%ebx PC (0x08102980) ok source "(%edi)" (0x090000cc) not located in a known VMA region (needed readable region)! destination "%ebx" ok SegvReason: reading unknown VMA Signal: 11 SourcePackage: wpa StacktraceTop: ??
