Comment 0 for bug 402693

Hi! I'll post same info posted on Ubuntu Forums: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1219305

Recently I've updated to latest kernel 2.6.28-14-generic i686 in my Jaunty Jackalope 32-bit system.

I use kde4 4.3 RC and in the latest days I've been suffering of massive core dumping due to 'segmentation fault' my applications that depend on Gnome libs.

My thunderbird can't even save an attachment, it just cores dump :frown:

I've tried gedit from console, it cores dump even before starting!

Here is the backtrace of gdb on gedit behavior:

[CODE]
(gdb) bt
#0 0x00000000 in ?? ()
#1 0xb790cd9d in ?? () from /usr/lib/libgio-2.0.so.0
#2 0xb78e58b2 in ?? () from /usr/lib/libgio-2.0.so.0

#7 0xb76b04ff in start_thread () from /lib/tls/i686/cmov/libpthread.so.0
[/CODE]

From my thunderbird launched on console:
$ /usr/lib/thunderbird/thunderbird

[CODE]
#0 0xb808e430 in __kernel_vsyscall ()

#12 0xb74a749e in clone () from /lib/tls/i686/cmov/libc.so.6
[/CODE]

As you can see something in libgio-2.0.so is wrong. Maybe some new bug due to latest kernel patch (that nasty bug on NULL pointers stuff).

[B]Interesting part:[/B]
if open gedit with gksudo it just works witout any core dump!

[CODE]gksudo gedit[/CODE]

Any help?

Thanks and regards!
