[Desktop-packages] [Bug 805894] Re: gnome-settings-daemon crashed with signal 5 in xkl_process_error()
According to the stack trace in #3, the error seems to occur when set_motion calls XGetFeedbackControl. From man XGetFeedbackControl: A BadMatch error will be generated if the requested device does not support feedbacks. Whether or not a given device supports feedbacks can be determined by examining the information returned by the XOpenDevice request. For those devices that support feedbacks, XOpenDevice will return an XInputClassInfo structure with the input_class field equal to the constant FeedbackClass (defined in the file XI.h). Since set_motion (from the gnome-settings-daemon source file gsd-mouse- manager.c) does not perform this check before calling XGetFeedbackControl, that is probably the problem. According to xinput list --long the harddisk is a keyboard with mouse buttons(!): Western Digital My Book id=9[slave keyboard (3)] Reporting 1 classes: Class originated from: 9. Type: XIButtonClass Buttons supported: 20 Button labels: Button Left Button Middle Button Right Button Wheel Up Button Wheel Down Button Horiz Wheel Left Button Horiz Wheel Right Button Side Button Extra Button Forward Button Back Button Task Button 8 Button 9 Button Unknown Button Unknown Button Unknown Button Unknown Button Unknown Button Unknown This probably explains why the problem occurs in a mouse handling function. To fix the problem, we just have to check if the device supports feedbacks before calling XGetFeedbackControl. See attached patch for the gnome-settings-daemon package. I don't know very much about X programming, so the patch needs review from someone who knows what they're doing. It seems to work nicely for me so far, though. ** Patch added: Patch for the gnome-settings-daemon package https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-settings-daemon/+bug/805894/+attachment/3461641/+files/gsd-check-feedbacks-support.diff -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-settings-daemon in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/805894 Title: gnome-settings-daemon crashed with signal 5 in xkl_process_error() Status in “gnome-settings-daemon” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: Here's a note I included in a similar bug (797947) that may help to diagnose as this might be a timing issue: I'd like to add that I can never get gnome-settings-daemon to start and stay running for more than 5 seconds, UNLESS i take the following actions, in which case it applies the themes properly and responds to theme changes and generally works just fine: 1. start 'strace gnome-settings-daemon' in a window 2. wait until the terminal appears to hang in the middle of the output 3. switch to a virtual console (ALT+F1) and login 4. pkill -9 strace 5. switch back to X - everything is fine!

Interesting, beforehand I didn't had any problems with external HDD but since some recent update now it happens that whatever external USB Data device I connect (USB Stick, Amazon Kindle, Mobile Phone,...) nautilus crashes without apport generating any error report at all.

I can confirm the exact same behavior witnessed by Mike in comment #5 and Erwin above. In my case I have been trying to troubleshoot the extreme lack of theming in Oneiric - it never occurred to me to unplug my external WD My Book, which has been recognized as a keyboard for as long as I can remember but has never given me any difficulty. Once unplugged, I can start gnome-settings-daemon fine, and windows are themed. (gnome-settings-daemon:4587): Gdk-WARNING **: The program 'gnome-settings-daemon' received an X Window System error. This probably reflects a bug in the program. The error was 'BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes)'.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 805894] Re: gnome-settings-daemon crashed with signal 5 in xkl_process_error()
I can confirm that this bug happens in Ubuntu 11.10 if a Western Digital My Book (1 Tb mirroring) is connected through USB. Disconnecting the WD results in a gnome-settings-daemon that doesn't crash. This bug can be temporarily fixed by executing the following script as startup item in Startup Applications : #!/bin/bash xinput --set-prop Western Digital My Book Device Enabled 0 nohup gnome-settings-daemon /dev/null killall nautilus nohup nautilus -n /dev/null This is the part in my /var/log/udev that shows that udev is seeing the USB HDD as a hid device.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 805894] Re: gnome-settings-daemon crashed with signal 5 in xkl_process_error()
Two other things of note, I am not sure if they are relevant: First, I have the Blueman Applet starting up as one of my Startup Applications. I do not have an internal bluetooth chip on my netbook, and so have a small bluetooth USB dongle which is usually attached to the USB Hub I use as a 'docking station' for my netbook when I am at home and using a larger monitor, external wireless keyboard, mouse etc. However, this time, I did not have any USB devices attached, including the bluetooth dongle, and the blueman applet still was started in my Startup Applications without the hardware attached. The crash occurred about 30 seconds after login. Second, I have observed a few times, that the Ubuntu One Indicator sometimes seems to take awhile to startup and connect, indicated by 'lighting up' It seems that when the crash occurs it is usually one of the times that Ubuntu One seems to be delayed in connecting. It does not seem that every time Ubuntu One is delayed I receive this crash however, and Ubuntu One is not delayed on every boot. Just 2 observations, like I said they may not be relevant, but they may help.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 805894] Re: gnome-settings-daemon crashed with signal 5 in xkl_process_error()
Also getting this error from time to time, but I'm not using any external USB HDD. Just have a NAS attached to my Network. But I can't say it always happens when I access my NAS. So far the error seems quite randomly from my side. Couldn't figure out any fixed steps to reproduce this error. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-settings-daemon in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/805894 Title: gnome-settings-daemon crashed with signal 5 in xkl_process_error() Status in “gnome-settings-daemon” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: Here's a note I included in a similar bug (797947) that may help to diagnose as this might be a timing issue: I'd like to add that I can never get gnome-settings-daemon to start and stay running for more than 5 seconds, UNLESS i take the following actions, in which case it applies the themes properly and responds to theme changes and generally works just fine: 1. start 'strace gnome-settings-daemon' in a window 2. wait until the terminal appears to hang in the middle of the output 3. switch to a virtual console (ALT+F1) and login 4. pkill -9 strace 5. switch back to X - everything is fine!

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 805894] Re: gnome-settings-daemon crashed with signal 5 in xkl_process_error()
After reading more of a related RedHat bug (https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=657726) it would seem that these crashes are in fact due to some bad messages coming back from xklavier or xinput, and gnome-settings-daemon not being able to handle them.
