Michael's "/etc/init/" showed 4 upstart conf files updated recently; three on the 14th when this issue began being reported:
$ ls -latr ... -rw-r--r-- 1 tj tj 480 Jan 9 11:34 nvidia-persistenced.conf -rw-r--r-- 1 tj tj 483 Jan 14 04:28 alsa-store.conf -rw-r--r-- 1 tj tj 609 Jan 14 04:28 alsa-state.conf -rw-r--r-- 1 tj tj 494 Jan 14 04:28 alsa-restore.conf I asked Michael to remove them and run the 'telinit u' tests again. With these files removed the "get_state.sh" test did not provoke a fault. Adding back the three alsa files caused the fault so he tested the alsa conf files one by one. alsa-restore.conf == SEGFAULT alsa-state.conf == SEGFAULT alsa-store.conf == SEGFAULT -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1269731 Title: init crashed with SIGSEGV To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/alsa-utils/+bug/1269731/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
