MeeGo interface crashes Banshee

Created attachment 176020 [details] banshee --debug output With banshee-meego extension installed on Ubuntu, pressing the "Show the Netbook interface" button crashes Banshee. Attached is banshee --debug output from just after startup when the button is pressed until crash. I am not using MeeGo but Ubuntu 10.10 - I still have an interest in the netbook interface because my screen is kinda small.
Does touching/creating the file /etc/meego-release fix the crash? $ sudo touch /etc/meego-release The main UI takes some different code paths if this file exists (as a hint that it's running in a MeeGo desktop). This file will cause the main UI to look/behave a little differently (more suitable for smaller screen). You do *not* need to --enable-meego for this to happen though. Passing --enable-meego builds the panel extension, which does absolutely require MeeGo (libmutter-meego) to be useful. Running this panel extension on Ubuntu will just be confusing as you'll have two main windows competing for each other.
Actually looking at the crash - I think this was already fixed in master and stable-1.9 branches in git. Please try building from one of those branches in git.
Oops. Thanks. It was fixed in git.
