Description Thomas Jollans 2006-09-07 13:13:49 UTC
What were you doing when the application crashed?
I was starting gnome. it crashed before when I added the applet, which seamed to lock the system into an infinite bug-buddy loop (including gnome-panel crashing I think). If this continues, you'll get a second report.

Comment 1 Thomas Jollans 2006-09-07 15:32:38 UTC
I was running Xgl with compiz at the time, if that matters. When sticky notes crashed, bug-buddy popped up again and again. When login in afresh, gnome-panel again started Sticky Notes (and failed). I had to disable it via GConf - I believe it might be better if gnome-panel automatically disabled applets that crash at startup.

Comment 3 Thomas Jollans 2006-09-08 10:19:29 UTC
I was (unknowingly ;) ) half-way through a gnome upgrade at the time. It works fine now (gnome 2.16.0), with and without compiz.
Seeing the age of the duplicate bug, this may have been a bug in an early pre-release of gnome as shipped in Frugalware.
Comment 4 Libu 2006-11-10 16:06:14 UTC
Thanks for taking the time to report this bug.
However, you are using a version that is too old and not supported anymore. GNOME developers are no longer working on that version, so unfortunately there will not be any bug fixes for the version that you use.
By upgrading to a newer version of GNOME you could receive bug fixes and new functionality. You may need to upgrade your Linux distribution to obtain a newer version of GNOME.
Please feel free to reopen this bug if the problem still occurs with a newer version of GNOME.

I'm marking this bug as obsolete, since it was encountered in a previous version of Gnome, and as you have mentioned, is not seen in the latest version.
