*** Bug 166986 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
To be more precise, cc desn't really crashed but it stopped to redraw the content of the control-center window. This bug is really reproductible here (it appears twice in 10 min after I've opened the bug)
it hangs here to. The issue is created by this patch: 2005-01-26 Jody Goldberg <jody@gnome.org> * control-center.c (relayout_canvas) : skip lines that are finished, but keep processing up coming lines. This should make alignment work again. While we're here add a bit more padding at the bottom. And the patch doesn't fix the alignment here.
It fixed it for me. How are you triggereing the hang ?
Hello Jody, the hang appears when I resize the control-center window. Not immediatly but if try during 30 secondes maximum the hang appears. (I just made it happen again rigth now)
I changed the title as is it not very clear
I had a theory for a moment that this was somehow locale specific but I'm not seeing anything in fr_FR. Can people try to replicate this in the 'C' locale ?
I've tried with different fonts/locales/themes, no change.
Created attachment 37614 [details] icon alignment the icons alignment doesn't seems to be good
I add 2 more comments but don't know if related, When I resize the CC shell, it is very unresponsive (not like when I resize a nautilus window). When the CC shell, the gnome-control-center use all the CPU available.
FYI: Bug 300256 claims to have a patch that reverses alphabetical order of the items - the way it should be.
I think this patch concern more the bug 167736 (I've opened it few months ago).
it seems that the last commit (with a reworked layout function) fixes this, feel free to reopen if this happens for you again The patch has been committed to HEAD
