Gedit trava e trava

Question

Ao digitar Gedit (Ubuntu 14.01), ele ocasionalmente trava, a seta do mouse pisca e, em seguida, trava sem qualquer mensagem de erro (apenas fecha), causando grandes problemas.
Eu normalmente estou usando o Gedit junto com a janela do navegador e o terminal. Eu tenho uma memória RAM de 4 gigabytes e uma partição swap de 10 GB. Eu tenho meu sistema dual booted com Ubuntu e Windows 8.1.

A saída para o topo:

Answer 1

Nada de errado com sua RAM, CPU, disco ou swap.

Nas linhas a seguir, o 2> /dev/null significa apenas "ignorar qualquer erro"

1. Faça um backup completo do sistema (Você é tipo de usuário 4)
2. sudo apt-get purge gedit
3. sudo rm -r ~/.local/share/gedit/* 2> /dev/null
4. sudo rm -r /usr/lib/gedit/* 2> /dev/null
5. sudo rm -r /usr/share/glib-2.0/schemas/org.gnome.gedit.plugins.* 2> /dev/null
6. sudo apt-get install gedit

elimina qualquer problema que possa causar problemas de estabilidade em gedit e, em seguida, o reinstala.
