Comment 92 for bug 269651

Thx for the effort so far, but the bug still happens on my system. I am running Intrepid (KDE4+compiz) on an Asus V2s laptop.

Architecture: amd64
Version: 0.2.10-1ubuntu9

Now that I read the above reproduction-recipe, I am fairly sure I am experiencing a similar bug.

The crash happens to me (up to once every hour) when I am using eclipse and close a dialog window (by pressing ESC), e.g. the file-search dialog or team>commit-dialog. I do not know how to reproduce this 100%, because it doesn't always happen, but that is definitely the trigger for the crash.

I do not find segfaults in my logs, but i do always have entries in my syslog before X crashes, indicating console-kit-daemon is the culprit:

Now that I read the above reproduction-recipe, I am fairly sure I am experiencing a similar bug.

The crash happens (sometimes) when I am using eclipse and close a dialog window (by pressing ESC), not the parent window, e.g. the file-search dialog or team>commit-dialog. I do not know how to reproduce this 100%, because it doesn't always happen, but that is definitely a trigger for the crash.

I do not find segfaults in my logs, but i do always have an entry in my syslog right before X crashes, indicating console-kit-daemon is probably to blame:

Every 'Unable to activate console'-line is a crash. The Glib-lines only appeared on the last crash.

As you can see I had a pretty disruptive April Fools day. :)

If you need more details, I'll be happy to provide them.
