segfault - error 6 in libc-2.13.so after GNOME3 upgrade::[SOLVED]

Greetings archers,

Today I`ve -Syu`ed my system which is running Gnome 3 on it (64 bit installation of Arch). Everything was working just awesome but now almost everything is crashing with a very strange behavior.

For example, flash plugin is crashing when watching youtube videos in fullscreen, nautilus is crashing when trying to move/drag the icons, chromium is crashing when trying to type something in the address bar.

The following error message is being written immediatelly after the crash occures.

May  5 15:53:54 localhost kernel: [ 2675.133040] chromium[6697]: segfault at 7fffece75fe8 ip 00007f6494808845 sp 00007fffece75ff0 error 6 in libc-2.13.so[7f64947a5000+154000]
May  5 16:05:48 localhost kernel: [  128.232670] plugin-containe[4320]: segfault at 7fff72126fe8 ip 00007f3344a8a845 sp 00007fff72126ff0 error 6 in libc-2.13.so[7f3344a27000+154000]
May  5 16:06:34 localhost kernel: [  174.506023] nautilus[4375]: segfault at 7fff3ae21fc8 ip 00007f14dea74845 sp 00007fff3ae21fd0 error 6 in libc-2.13.so[7f14dea11000+154000]

I've searched on the Internet and I was unable to find any tip or something which I need to implement in order to fix this issue.

Also, I do not know what this 'libc-2.13.so' library is exactly used for? Can some one point me to some direction?

EDIT: I've found that 'libc-2.13.so' is apart of 'glibc' and 'lib32-glibc' (the GNU C Library), so I need to check which version is currently installed on my laptop once I get home and will try downgrading it and check if that helps.

Additionally, I've searched the Internet deeper and did not find anything similar to this except this ONE.

At this moment I'm not knowledgeable to narrow this issue down. Is some one else experiencing this behavior?

Thanks,

Daniel

Re: segfault - error 6 in libc-2.13.so after GNOME3 upgrade::[SOLVED]

When I select the Macbuntu Cursor scheme (the one I was using under gnome2, xfce etc ...) some programs are segfaulting as described in my previous post.

Once I switched the cursors back to the Gnome 3 original skin, everything is again working perfectly. This thread can be closed or something.

Thanks.
