I managed to get a backtrace on the second attempt. If you look at the file attached, it has a failed attempt first, then a second attach, then a backtrace.
When the screen started flickering, I killed GSD with signal 3, then took the backtrace as suggested in the wiki. Let me know if this is okay or not. ** Attachment added: "gdb-gnome-settings-daemon2.txt" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/23843582/gdb-gnome-settings-daemon2.txt -- strange desktop flickering makes desktop unusable https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/339491 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
