2012-06-06 10:20:14 Krastanov description I don't know how to reproduce this bug, but after varying amounts of normal usage of my laptop, I notice gnome-settings-daemon is consuming 100% (approx) CPU. I am not sure how to restart gnome-settings-daemon, I tried opening a terminal and running gnome-settings-daemon again but this crashes my system - my external monitor switches off and my laptop locks up. I am able to reboot with SysRq+REISUB.

I am not sure how to restart gnome-settings-daemon, I tried opening a terminal and running gnome-settings-daemon again but this crashes my system - my external monitor switches off and my laptop locks up. I am able to reboot with SysRq+REISUB. Sorry I cannot provide more information - it happens twice now, maybe someone can tell me how to get more information for the next time this happens. $ lsb_release -rd Description: Ubuntu precise (development branch) Release: 12.04 $ apt-cache policy gnome-settings-daemon gnome-settings-daemon:   Installed: 3.4.0-0ubuntu2   Candidate: 3.4.0-0ubuntu2   Version table:  *** 3.4.0-0ubuntu2 0         500 http://gb.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ precise/main amd64 Packages         100 /var/lib/dpkg/status ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 12.04 Package: gnome-settings-daemon 3.4.0-0ubuntu2 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.2.0-20.33-generic 3.2.12 Uname: Linux 3.2.0-20-generic x86_64 ApportVersion: 1.95-0ubuntu1 Architecture: amd64 Date: Fri Mar 30 17:16:02 2012 InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 12.04 LTS "Precise Pangolin" - Beta amd64 (20120301) ProcEnviron:  LANGUAGE=en_GB:en  TERM=xterm  PATH=(custom, user)  LANG=en_GB.UTF-8  SHELL=/bin/bash SourcePackage: gnome-settings-daemon UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) Impact: gnome-settings-daemon uses 100% cpu for ever in some cases Test Case: Seems to happen sometimes after docking or connecting with vnc, try to connect to the machine using a vnc client a few times and check there is no numlock cycle and cpu usage loop starting Regression potential: The numlock state could be wrongly set,restored on login in some cases ----------------- Original message: ----------------- I don't know how to reproduce this bug, but after varying amounts of normal usage of my laptop, I notice gnome-settings-daemon is consuming 100% (approx) CPU.
