Same here. VLC suddenly crashes and the whole system freezes leaving the hard drive madly working. Finally I have cold-reboot the linux kernel. Ubuntu seems to own a magic power to make every application a hardware killer.
What if the user is not present and the bad status lasts ? 30 minute of such full load state could have physically damaged the hard disk, and Ubuntu would be the notorious hard-drive killer again. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/743323 Title: vlc memory leak To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/vlc/+bug/743323/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
