Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: hal

I am running Ubuntu from the LiveCD.

Steps to reproduce:
With no applications open, select System->Preferences->Hardware Information. On 
the Hardware Information window,  select Help->About. About seven seconds 
later, a window titled "Application problem" will appear, stating "Sorry, 
Hardware Information closed unexpectedly". 

Note:
Despite the error dialog claiming otherwise, Hardware Information did not close 
at all, and if I select "Close" to dismiss the error dialog, I can continue 
using the Hardware Information dialog as usual. Conversely, if I select 
"Restart Program" on the error dialog, another instance of the Device Manager 
window appears, so I then have two. I am able to reproduce this bug every time 
I try.
