Public bug reported: I originally installed from the standard PowerPC Dapper LiveCD. I soon installed the xubuntu-desktop and switched to it as my default session. Sometimes three windows come up all at once saying programs crashed, namely, evolution-alarm-notify, update-notifier, and gnome-volume- manager. This has happened, not reliably, but several times both in Dapper and Edgy. It seems to happen when I'm closing stuff and shutting down my computer. This time (Edgy Xubuntu) (whose crash-logs will be attached) I had just closed two windows owned by separate instances of the program "Terminal". I didn't notice doing anything else particularly of note at that time, although I did have Thunderbird, Firefox, OpenOffice, and another Terminal instance also running at the same time.
I don't know what evolution-alarm-notify or gnome-volume-manager are, or why they're running (since I don't exactly use GNOME or Evolution), but I think I know update-notifier -- the thing that sometimes appears in the GUI, even in Xubuntu, to make it easy to keep the system up to date. ** Affects: Ubuntu Importance: Undecided Status: Unconfirmed -- Sometimes three programs crash when closing up in Xubuntu https://launchpad.net/bugs/70972 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
