This is just a thought, and I have no real evidence, but the problems started on my systems on or around the time I installed Eclipse and Python 3.2 to do some exploratory software work, just learning my way around Python. I also installed Pygame, which had to be compiled and installed manually to

Hi Robie I think you may be onto something, but I don't have the knowledge to offer any concrete way forward. I have seen liblsp.so and libc.so.6 repeatedly referred to in the crash reports I am getting, but this could just be because these libraries are so basic to the system functioning. AFAIK t

Hi Michael, I have had problems getting the Ubuntu Apport system to work, it seems to cut out before uploading the files. It is not just this bug, either, I have encountered a number of crashes where I go through the process, and then instead of opening the browser page, nada. The crash reports I

Hi Robie I have tried doing as you suggest, but the automatic upload of the information appears not to be working. Possibly this is another symptom of the same problem. I also tried implementing the upload from the command line, but the upload failed there, too. I am attaching TWO crash report

This problem started approximately 2 weeks ago. Before then, both laptops were using sshd with no problems. I cannot be exact about the date this started, but this leads me to suspect that a recently-changed 64-bit library package may be at the root. Also, I have tried using the dropbear package
