GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 144096
The Gnome 2.6 splashscreen doesn't disappear automatically
Last modified: 2004-12-22 21:47:04 UTC
When I start Gnome, the splash screen remains on top of all apps until clicked at. This happens every time I start Gnome, but only since a couple of days. It used to disappear automatically.
I can confirm this bug is still occurring, now on my Debian sid system with each login, and only since I upgraded from 2.6.1 -> 2.6.2. Same behavior; once it is clicked it vanishes but until then it remains on top of everything.
Happens here too. Slackware 10.0 all default. I belive it's gnome 2.6.2 with lots of things from 2.6.3. My about-window in nautilus says 2.6.3. The behaviour is the same. on the first days, all worked right. Now, the splash just lay there, waiting to be clicked. Any more info needed? I don't know what to attach...
there is a patch for this bug in bug 147686. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 147686 ***
