Confirming, the same happens on ALTLinux, control-center 2.14.1.
Comment 2 Jens Granseuer 2007-02-03 20:16:18 UTC 
If this is still a problem, can you please get us a stack trace with debugging symbols? Please see http://live.gnome.org/GettingTraces for more information on how to do so. Thanks in advance!

Thanks, I'll close the bug for now, then. Feel free to reopen if it happens again with a current release.
