Description g-varshney1 2001-04-06 08:49:46 UTC 
Package:  gnome-applets
Severity: grave
Version:  1.2.4
Synopsis: Task list applet crashes on solaris 2.7, also desk-guide doesn't work
Class:    sw-bug

System: SunOS 5.7 sun4u sparc
C compiler: 2.95
glib: 1.2.8
GTK+: 1.2.8

Description:
When task list applet is running , and any new window is created - the
applet crashes , and has to be reloaded over and over.

Sometimes, after reloading several times, the applet corrects itself and
beomes stable for the rest of the session.

Sometimes it crashes with a segmentation fault at the beginning itself.

Deskguide applet doesnt work at all. Something may be missing in the
installation packages for Solaris 2.7

We had downloaded the entire source and compiled it on this machine many
time (did not use any ready made binaries)
