Hi Roalt. True, it is very frustrating to click on a window with notices about this crash after every login. I also have an encrypted home partition, but if 'accountsservice'; "provides a set of D-Bus interfaces for querying and manipulating user account information (...) based on the useradd, usermod and userdel commands" in my opinion it should/could have an impact on a moments when we or installed applications adding new user etc. But it is only my opinion.
Anyway, definitely there is some problem. And it seems to growing on every weeks...

There appeared some problems with 'accountsservice' -- a D-Bus interface for user account query and manipulation, that honestly have occurred day-to-day. ### PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: ======================== A few weeks ago after login as a normal user, 'accountsservice' (used for querying and manipulating user account informations) crashed. On the beginning it was a random incident. After a few days, 'accountsservice' crashed each time after every user logs on. I think, that's all what I can write, to try to describe this issue, because everything seems to be okay -- no system freezing or slowdowns, no problems after packages update/upgrade etc. ### DETAILED INFORMATIONS: ========================== * ProblemType: Crash * Uname: Linux 3.2.0-51-generic-pae i686 * Architecture: i386 * DistroRelease: Ubuntu 12.04 (Xubuntu 12.04 variant) * Package: accountsservice 0.6.15-2ubuntu9.6 * ApportVersion: 2.0.1-0ubuntu17.4 * NonfreeKernelModules: nvidia * Segfault happened at: 0xb76bb7c3: mov 0x10(%eax),%eax * Executable Path (ProcCmdline): /usr/lib/accountsservice/accounts-daemon Also '/var/log/apport.log' file contain some informations about this issue. Everything is in a attached log file. ### WHAT HAVE HAD AN IMPACT ON THIS ISSUE? ========================================== I have no ideas, why it started to happen. Only one thing, which I've done for a few weeks before problems with 'accountsservice' was 'conky-all' install. Nothing more, nothing less -- no serious administrative tasks were performed (except e.g. kernel or programs updates via APT utility or UpdateManager, but it seems to be obvious). ,-----[ $ lsb_release -rd ] | Description: Ubuntu 12.04.3 LTS | Release: 12.04 `----- ### APPENDIX: ============= I would like to notice, that this issue still occurs, after next point Xubuntu update -- from 12.04.2 to 12.04.3 version. So for now, kernel version is; 3.2.0-55-generic-pae. Anything related with this bug, when all of this started to happen, remains unchanged. One more, important, thing to mention is that - in my case - 'accountsservices' crashed even after a fresh Xubuntu 12.04 install. For more info, please see comment #12. Best regards.
