Public bug reported:
Steps to reproduce:
1. Have 14.04 and unity/compiz installed.
2. Configure the system to log in automatically.
3. Plug in a Logitech C920 webcam.
4. Cause some program to generate a crash dump with "kill -11"
5. Restart the computer.
Result: Upon booting, the system automatically logs in and then crashes
within 1 second. It happens so fast that it's difficult to tell what
happens, and you get dumped back at the login screen.
Deleting the pending crash report from /var/crash causes everything to
work again, until some other program crashes.
Removing the webcam from the system or replacing it with a different
webcam prevents the crash. Logging in manually prevents the crash too.
A retraced crash file with backtrace is attached.
