panel crashes after screwing with mouse settings
Last modified: 2004-12-22 21:47:04 UTC
Package: gnome-panel Severity: normal Version: 2.0.6 Synopsis: panel crashes after screwing with mouse settings Bugzilla-Product: gnome-panel Bugzilla-Component: Panel BugBuddy-GnomeVersion: 2.0 (2.0.3) Description: Description of Problem: I am suing a Vaio PCG-FX250K laptop. I figured I wanted to use the touchpad as a scroll mouse (the sides as scroll wheel and forward/back buttons). So I changed the mouse settings to scroll mouse. That was a problem in itself which I managed to resolve after tweaking in some config file in X11 dir. (I am a n00b to this so sorry for the lack of details). While I was trying to figure out the mosue problem, the mouse was randomly moving and randomly clicking. During the mouse repair, machine was also rebooted a few times. Steps to reproduce the problem: 1. Screw with mouse settings 2. Enjoy the random mouse movements 3. Reboot a few times. 4. Never use gnome again Actual Results: As soon as gnomepanel is started it crashes with fatat error (aborted) Expected Results: Gnome does not crash repeatedly How often does this happen? Every time on boot. Additional Information: Debugging Information: Backtrace was generated from '/usr/bin/gnome-panel' (no debugging symbols found)...(no debugging symbols found)... 0x40849587 in waitpid () from /lib/libpthread.so.0
