Bug Description
Using Lucid 64-bit Ubuntu on a MacBook-Pro.
When desktopnova is running, the system freezes and reboots seconds later. I have the program configured to use a folder with pictures in HQ, which takes up almost 600MB. The program works correctly for a period of time, then the system restarts automatically.
At the time that you disable the automatic startup of the program, the system has not gone to fail.
Memory problems are ruled out, since I have Windows, Linux and Mac on the laptop and only fails with Linux. I tried it with the current kernel and have tried also to the former. As the problem persisted, I manually installed the new kernel 2.6.34-
Discuss the computer had never failed before installing this application.
Changed status to “invalid”, because I wonder whether the bug is really related to DesktopNova. Tested on different machines and doesn’t hit such a problem.
Does this bug still affect you? Do others also recognize something related?
