Comment 9 for bug 970837

I'm able to confirm the problem as described by TomaszChmielewski. I'm running Ubuntu 12.10 64bit.

Just after logging in apport will pop up a message informing me about a GPU hang and then I go through all the steps to send the crash report. However, the process consumes 100% cpu and spends quite some time between each step. Also other apport processes are spawned, maybe because apport itself is causing some problems, as reported by Rafał Ochmański.

Attached is an strace of the first apport instance spawned when I tried to reproduce the problem. I had to cancel 3 or 4 other instances (using the "cancel" button of the popup) before the first instance finished by itself, which took about 4 minutes (more than 3 minutes of cpu time as reported by "top").
