Re: [Banshee-List] Banshee crashing constantly

["Nick Bargnesi" <nick den-4 com>]

Odd.  Any other programs behaving similarly?  Have you tried removing and reinstalling Banshee?

emerge -C banshee && emerge banshee

I recently had an issue that was gstreamer-related, doing a "emerge -C gstreamer && emerge gstreamer" fixed it.  Couldn't hurt.

Nope, I'm on a desktop.

The funniest part is that I get this error immediately after starting gdb on Banshee and Banshee freezes. Banshee starts playing again once I quit gdb. (Note...telling gdb to continue at the prompt doesn't do anything).

Interesting... you on a laptop?

Other than a faulty UPS on a workstation, I'd think SIGPWR would only be received on a laptop.  SIGPWR should be reserved for notifying programs when the system is experiencing a hardware failure.

Tried that and got this:

(gdb) c
Continuing.

Program received signal SIGPWR, Power fail/restart.

The main window doesn't disappear. It's still there, and I have to manually kill it. But it does not respond.

So it sounds like it's not crashing but the main window is disappearing?  If it's crashing, follow instr. below for a useful backtrace...

Try attaching gdb to Banshee to get some type of useful error report. 

gdb program `ps aux | grep -v grep | grep "banshee.exe" | awk '{ print $2 }'`

Once it attaches to Banshee, the process will stop executing.  Enter 'c' to continue and wait until it crashes.  When it crashes, a 'bt' command will give you a backtrace to see the contents of the stack and where it crashed.

Hey all,

I'm running Banshee 0.10.12 on 2.6.17-gentoo-r8 with CFLAGS="-O2 -march=prescott -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer" and CHOST="i686-pc-linux-gnu".

When playing music in Banshee, every couple minutes I'll get a crash. No error message when I run it from console, just a blanking out of the Banshee GUI, no more playing of a song, and no response. If I restart, everything is fine.

I was just wondering what might be happening...it's kind of strange. Maybe a gstreamer error? I'm just playing normal .mp3 and .ogg files. I didn't have this error on my previous installation (Ubuntu 6.06).

Thanks a lot,
Greg
