that's a duplicate of bug #956824 (in case the retracing doesn't get it right)

Undupping, I let it to the retracers for a reason, we don't want to leave the dump etc on the bug and the retracers will not do its work if the bug is closed

I did some further investigating on this, and I don't thing this is a dup of bug #956824. This bug occurs on the preinstalled images during oem-config setup. Once logged in, the bug never reoccurs.

Also, I hacked the Beta 2 image to update to gnome-settings-daemon_3.4.0-0ubuntu2_armhf.deb (which fixed bug #956824), and still see the error during the same phase.

Running apport-retrace on the crash file doesn't produce much helpful info (corrupt stack). Trying manual debugging from https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingProgramCrash (although since this happens only during oem-config, not sure how far I will get).

Oh, and don't bother waiting for the retracers. They don't work on armel/armhf bugs.

Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.

Bug confirmed with using LiveUSB stick. Had downloaded the beta 2 image to create a liveUSB.
