unable to login after updates

[Tero Tilus]

Binary package hint: nautilus

I did a fresh install of amd64 gutsy using alternate cd. Box worked fine untill I installed (security) updates using update-manager. After updating it boots normally and I have tty consoles working. When I login from gdm the login sound plays, mouse cursor is there and moves, keyboard lights work, but nothing else happens, solid brown background (no image) and cursor is all I get. From tty I see gnome-panel and nautilus are eating up all cpu and the size of ~/nautilus-debug-log.txt is ever changing and it contains couple of megs of

0x756640 2007/12/17 02:54:30.0741 (USER): debug log dumped due to signal 11

only timestamp differin from line to line

in /var/log/kern.log I have

... timestamp and stuff ... nm-applet[5392]: segfault at 00002b18ffa0eeff rip 00002b180c9405b0 rsp 00007fffa52bf6a8 error 4

Looks like there's 1-3 lines per login trial and segfaulting progs are from the set of three, update-notifier and gnome-panel, in addition to nm-applet.

My box is Athlon64, two SATA drives, /boot on sda1 uses XFS, / on raid0 uses XFS

After downgrading gnome-panel and gnome-panel-data to 2.20.0.1-0ubuntu6 nautilus alone was eating cpu after login. No other changes.
Additionally downgrading libgnome-desktop-2, libgnomeui-0 and libgnomeui-common to 2.20.0-0ubuntu1 did not change the situation any further.

The same thing with gutsy i386, same hw, same installation params.

Okay. This is a dupe. Sorry. :-/

Where can I found the dupe ref? My eyes seem not to work. I just can't find it anywhere on this page. How can I find the bug of which this one is a duplicate (and read workaround/solution or help debugging it)?

/me is feeling dumb

Duplicate of 150471?

[Tero Tilus (tero-tilus)]

Could be dupe of https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nautilus/+bug/150471 . However, I'm not quite sure, because 150471 was about nautilus not shutting down properly after session. I get it hanging on first login and it is not occasional, it is constant (well, 150471 is for many too).

I currently have a clean working gutsy and am running updates almost one-by-one to find out what exactly blows it up. When I blow it up again, I'll be able to compare to symptoms reported on 150471 and try out the patch.

BTW, why isn't this showing on my reported bugs list?
