Re: Cinnamon crashes with segfault

These are very hard to get a real answer on. Best one can hope for is how it happens and how one can fix or avoid it themselves.

More often than not the one being helped figures it out and post back it was the printer being connected that never caused a problem before - so not mentioned or similar.

Edit: syntax / A suggestion would be to search for results from https://stackoverflow.com/ alone. Results from there have helped me quite a bit, but out of my league to post : )

Sometimes one must update a system for the latest OS versions to work properly: Mobo: ASRock model: N68C-S UCC Bios: American Megatrends v: P1.60 date: 09/19/2011

Edit: it would be a blessing in your case just to move from dimoserver and it's forcedeth network ports.

Ehtron, thanks for the update. I am still running the packages from your first test and haven't had a segfault since Nov 1st (yet). I will keep running on 3.6.0
Update: 25 days now without a segfault. Running the latest 4.13 kernel.
