Public bug reported: I have core 2 duo with nividia. I upgraded from gutsy to hardy manually today and found my system is not working the way it should.
At the begining all menus in my system froze in ~30 seconds after login and I had to restart gdm to get them working again. After menus froze I wasn't able to start any programs anymore exept the ones that were allready running. I had problems with several programs including firefox, gnome-terminal, nautilus. I tried to change display driver from nvidia to nv, boot with older kernel, remove settings files ~/.nautilus, ~/.gnome2, ~/.gconf, with no help. After I removed tracker menus didn't crash so often (i got 2 frozes in 3 hours) but other problems remained. After firefox was closed and I tried to start it again, it didn't start anymore. I downgraded firefox3-beta to firefox2 and firefox started working. At this point I found this bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/hardy/+source/scim/+bug/66104 I tried to disable scim, but there was not ~/.scim in my system. Some cases: 1. gnome-terminal freezes if I start it ~30 seconds after login. If I start it before 30 s and keep it running it doesn't crash. 2. When I open nautilus and click back button nautilus freezes and logout is needed to get working. 3. If I try to change gnome-terminal options by right mouse click gnome-terminal freezes 4. If freezing has happened it is impossible to start any program without relogin I tried to get backtrace from nautilus with help of this link https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Backtrace I tried to get trace while nautilus was allready running but gnome-terminal froze when pid was attached to gdb ** Affects: ubuntu Importance: Undecided Status: New -- [Hardy] gnome-terminal, firefox and nautilus freeze https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/222756 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
