Looks like it is using the VT_GETSTATE ioctl which errors out if there is no local console. Since I boot with "console=ttyS0" and use the serial console, I think this might conflict.

Hi,

I'm not sure that the segfaults are caused by the serial console. Does anyone
get any apport reports for these segfaults? Could someone with this problem
please check in /var/crash? I'm not sure whether ubuntu-server installs any
of apport, so installing the non-gui parts may be a way to get a trace of the
crash.

Thanks,

James

I have apport installed but it doesn't have any crash reports. Besides the debug thread above I now captured a strace and attached it. I hope this is enough for debugging.

Hi,

Thanks for doing this. strace isn't the best tool to diagnose these
issues though. Would it be possible for you to use "valgrind" to
get a trace of the issue. That normally gives good results for
segfaults.

Installing the -dbgsym packages for consolekit, libdbus-1-3 and
libglib2.0-0 would probably get a better stacktrace as well.
Please see

  https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingProgramCrash

for information on installing these packages.

Thanks,

James

Hi,

Thanks for the information. It confirms that the segfault is
the same as in bug 269651, so I am going to mark it as a duplicate.

The debug log you attached may be interesting.

Thanks,

James
