In your prior backtrace attempt you did not specify the program name when you started gdb, so I thought that was the problem.
Once you get the SIGSTOP, run "backtrace full", then "cont". I am bit unsure about this SIGSTOP thing, but you can also try to enter "handle SIGSTOP nopass" before you attach. The SIGTERM is normal, when you press escape, this signal is sent to the polytope by the screensaver daemon to make it stop painting on the screen. You can trigger the screensaver with "gnome-screensaver-command --activate". To turn off locking, go to System - Preferences - Screensaver and untick "Lock screen when screensaver is active". -- [intel] polytopes screensaver freezes, requiring hard reset https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/319097 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
