GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 555539
tomboy panel applet crashes if tomboy is already active
Last modified: 2008-10-08 12:43:28 UTC
I activated Tomboy's back-end in Beagle, and because of that, Tomboy was started and became active in the notification area. Later I tried to add the Tomboy applet to my GNOME panel. When I did this, I got this error message: The panel encountered a problem while loading "OAFIID:TomboyApplet". The Tomboy applet was not added to the panel. If I close tomboy first, and then add it to the panel, it works without problem. tomboy-0.12.0 and gnome-panel-2.24.0 on Mandriva 2009.0 x86_64.
You cannot run Tomboy in the panel if it's already running in the notification area. Sorry for the error, it is irritating...see discussion in bug 414789. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 414789 ***
