Description rodd 2001-04-11 07:15:22 UTC 
Package: control-center
Severity: normal
Version: 1.4.0.1
Synopsis: Crash setting up horizontal gradient for background
Bugzilla-Product: control-center
Bugzilla-Component: general

Description:
Okay, a few details.

I've got a good size image embossed in the background (it the bunny from tigert's web site).
The primary color is a grey, the secondary color is white.

I had a verticle gradient and I changed it to a horizontal gradient.  BANG!

Also, I can get a crash by setting both the primary and secondary colors to white, selecting horizontal gradient (no crash yet) and then changing the primary color (haven't tried secondary).

Hope this is helpful!

Comment 1 Chema Celorio 2001-09-15 05:21:17 UTC 
This has been fixed in the 1.5.x development code. We will make a
stable release of the control center pretty soon.
Comment 2 Chema Celorio 2001-09-15 17:40:33 UTC 
I would like to fix this crash for the background capplet in the control center.
However i need help from you, i need to know if this crash happes when a
particular image is beeing set as the background and also if it happens every
time that image is set. If this is the case can you provide me with an URL to
the image that makes the background capplet crash so that i can try to replicate
it in my computer. 

Thanks in advance
