Description Mikkel Kamstrup Erlandsen 2006-08-31 10:53:01 UTC 
If I search for "lock", and select the "Lock screen" hit, I get:

Traceback (most recent call last):

+ Trace 71306

  • File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/deskbar/DeskbarApplet.py", line 109 in on_match_selected 
    match.action(text)
  • File "/usr/lib/deskbar-applet/handlers/gdmactions.py", line 74 in action 
    self._scrsvr.Lock()
  • File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/dbus/proxies.py", line 79 in __call__ 
    reply_message = self._connection.send_with_reply_and_block(message, timeout)
  • File "dbus_bindings.pyx", line 458 in dbus_bindings.Connection.send_with_reply_and_block
DBusException: No reply within specified time 

when I unlock the screen again.

Either we dump gdmactions, or we surround the call with a try/catch and be happy.

Here is the patch that workarounds the problem until we have a real solution to the timeout problem.
Comment 3 Mikkel Kamstrup Erlandsen 2006-08-31 18:35:11 UTC 
I don't think we should drop gdm actions. I use deskbar as the only menu-style thing in my panel, and I won't be able to shut down or log out without it :-D

Seriously, I think we should keep it.
