Proposed Patch (Don't commit cell renderer on NULL model) (1.48 KB, patch) 2004-09-03 15:51 UTC, Martin Wehner	none	Details \| Review

Description Jürg Billeter 2004-08-31 09:26:42 UTC

Steps to reproduce the crash:
1. open a folder with nautilus
2. view it with the list view
3. change view to something else, for example icon view

Expected Results:
Just displaying the folder in icon view or whatever has been selected.

How often does this happen?
Always.

Additional Information:
The change in src/file-manager/fm-list-view.c (fm_list_view_clear) of
2004-08-19 seems to be the cause of the problem.

Comment 1 Kjartan Maraas 2004-09-01 11:28:09 UTC

Can't reproduce this here using nautilus-2.7.92, could you try a newer version
and see if that fixes it?

Comment 2 Jürg Billeter 2004-09-01 11:36:04 UTC

Sorry for not providing the exact nautilus version, but I was / am using 2.7.92,
too. Martin Wehner is taking care of the problem:
