Comment 1 Sekhar Reddy Pulukunta 2002-04-05 09:29:29 UTC

Sorry the Build is Gnome2.0 1st April 2002 .

Comment 2 Luis Villa 2002-04-09 22:19:06 UTC

Still would be nice to see symbols from Wipro.

Comment 3 Damon Chaplin 2002-04-23 19:41:55 UTC

Here's a trace with more detail.

I can reproduce it very easily, just by pressing the keys a few times
quickly.

The quick fix is to just ignore forward/backward keys when they are
not appropriate.

The correct thing may be to find out why we are getting Bonobo exev
verb calls when the buttons should be insensitive. It seems there is
some kind of race condition happening.

Comment 4 Luis Villa 2002-05-01 11:16:23 UTC

cc'ing michael and adding the GNOME2.0.0 keyword; it shouldn't be this
easy to crash nautilus if we can at all avoid it. [Puntable if we
can't fix, of course.] Damon: is this solaris specific?

Comment 5 Damon Chaplin 2002-05-06 18:01:12 UTC

No, it isn't Solaris-specific. And it is very easy to reproduce.

It would be simple to just ignore keypresses when we are at the ends
of the history lists. I think we should just do that.

Comment 6 Damon Chaplin 2002-05-08 17:46:26 UTC

Created attachment 8294 [details] [review]
Patch to fix it. (Well, to quietly ignore the problem rather than abort.)

Comment 7 Damon Chaplin 2002-05-08 17:47:15 UTC

Added PATCH, sun_patches keywords.

OK to commit? (I can't crash it any more.)

Comment 8 Darin Adler 2002-05-08 19:58:09 UTC

Sure. Fine to commit this change.

Comment 9 Damon Chaplin 2002-05-08 20:21:20 UTC

thanks. committed.

Comment 10 Muktha 2002-09-18 13:20:20 UTC

Couldn't simulate the problem with the latest sources from CVS head. I
guess the bug can be closed.

Comment 11 Anand 2002-09-23 04:56:18 UTC

Thanks for verifying. Marking bug as Closed.
