Description mike 2002-06-13 10:53:36 UTC 
With latest cvs CC and all latest packages for gnome2 both font and 
keyboard bindings crash on startup

No other capplets affected
Comment 1 Luis Villa 2002-06-13 11:29:53 UTC 
Trace would be useful, Mike, since this works here.

limited trace I'm afraid - no debug on.
Comment 3 Luis Villa 2002-06-13 22:03:02 UTC 
Jody? Can you take a look at this? is it useful at all?
Comment 4 jacob berkman 2002-06-13 22:48:11 UTC 
why are those running gnome_scores_new()?

are you sure that's the right stack trace?
Comment 5 mike 2002-06-13 23:53:01 UTC 
yep - this for font capplet crash
keyboard bindings is identical
Comment 6 Jody Goldberg 2002-06-14 00:42:59 UTC 
That stack trace is bogus.
Comment 7 mike 2002-06-14 10:22:06 UTC 
Curious - stack trace comes from bug-buddy

Further info - if I go back to CC 1.99.10 (last release) no error, 
although none of the improvements since are there.
Comment 8 Jody Goldberg 2002-06-14 12:53:48 UTC 
The package you are running does not have enough debuging symbols to make a
useful backtrace.  As a last ditch effort try running in gdb fro mthe onset,
then doing a 'bt' when it crashes.

gdb `which gnome-keyboard-properties`
run
  <make it crash>
bt
email us the result
Comment 9 mike 2002-06-14 16:51:26 UTC 
I will be trying a few things when I get home
1. recompile glade
2. replace the appropriate capplets files from control-center-1.9.10
3. recompile control-center with debugging on

Will report back here

BTW - just so I know, how is the stack trace bogus?
Comment 10 Jody Goldberg 2002-06-14 17:08:49 UTC 
The usual give away is when you see a function in the backtrace that could not
possibly have been called.
Comment 11 mike 2002-06-15 16:01:02 UTC 
After replacing contents of capplets/font and capplets/keybindings
with the files from control-center-1.99.10 everything works

Comment 13 Jody Goldberg 2002-06-15 17:17:06 UTC 
Ok, in that case I'll close it.
Comment 14 mike 2002-06-19 00:14:52 UTC 
Bug not been fixed - font and keybindings code unchanged so crash on
both as before
Comment 15 Jody Goldberg 2002-06-19 00:25:45 UTC 
The 2.0.0 code crashes ?
Then you'll need to get a debuggable build and a viable backtrace.
Comment 16 Jody Goldberg 2002-07-01 16:02:28 UTC 
This is a duplicate it has been fixed in cvs.
Comment 17 mike 2002-07-02 13:45:24 UTC 
Agree its now fixed - what bug is it a duplicate of?
Comment 18 Luis Villa 2002-07-02 15:39:15 UTC
