Theme Preferences crashes on switching themes with Compiz
Last modified: 2006-04-07 22:06:42 UTC
Distribution: Ubuntu 6.06 (dapper) Package: control-center Severity: major Version: GNOME2.14.0 2.14.x Gnome-Distributor: Ubuntu Synopsis: Theme Preferences crashes on switching themes Bugzilla-Product: control-center Bugzilla-Component: theme-manager Bugzilla-Version: 2.14.x BugBuddy-GnomeVersion: 2.0 (2.14.0) Description: Description of the crash: "Custom theme" was selected. I clicked on "Clearlooks" and it hung for about a minute before showing me the crash window. The "Theme Preferences" still has the Human theme border, but other windows are the blue Clearlooks with full window borders - including the bottom panel which has the title "Bottom Expanded Edge Panel" and the top panel which has a thick border. How often does this happen? I will try to reproduce it now. Additional Information: I am using Dapper Drake with Compiz and XGL. Debugging Information: Backtrace was generated from '/usr/bin/gnome-theme-manager' (no debugging symbols found) Using host libthread_db library "/lib/tls/i686/cmov/libthread_db.so.1".

I just tried reproducing by switching to another theme (Crux). This time, Bug Buddy immediately came up. By the way, Crux is really ugly.

I just logged in and out. The window borders on the panels disappeared, but when I switched theme again (back to Clearlooks) they appeared again, and there was another crash. Now I'll try without Compiz.
Compiz is the cause.
