DetailsDescription: Unable to access to lightdm-gtk-greeter after starting up the PC, just the first time. Lightdm segfaults for
the first login attempt. lightdm-gtk-greeeter 1:2.0.1-2 cairo 1.14.6-1 DMESG: lightdm-gtk-gre[435]: segfault at 10 ip 00007f8139a49840 sp 00007ffd995106a8 error 4 in libcairo.so.2.11400.6[7f81399d6000+129000] Steps to reproduce: Start up the PC with lightdm & lightdm-gtk-greeter enabled try to login the screen flickers and lightdm-gtk-greeter segfaults just for the first time try to login again, successfully |
This task depends upon
lightdm-gtk-greeter 1:2.0.2-1
cairo 1.14.8-1
I attached my coredump. It looks like the call to cairo_surface_get_type caused the segfault.
They don't seem to care much about it though.
I didn't have a static hostname set (as hinted in https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lightdm-gtk-greeter/+bug/1422794/comments/7),
after checking that `hostnamectl` gave "Static hostname: n/a" and setting it via `hostnamectl set-hostname blackbox` first login works ! (does not segfault)
