Description hammodl 2001-12-03 21:30:26 UTC 
Package: nautilus
Severity: major
Version: 1.4.0.4
Synopsis: Segfault on Gnome panel
Bugzilla-Product: nautilus
Bugzilla-Component: Installer

Description:
When I logon to Gnome the panel either partially loads or does not load at all and if I 
try to use any aspect of the panel I receive a segfault.  I still have full access to the 
programs through terminals but the panel does not work at all.  I think what has caused this problem is when I updated from RedHat 7.1 to RedHat 7.2, the first time I logged in to Gnome; I was prompted as to whether I wanted to keep my existing settings or to use the default settings, and for this user I chose to keep the settings.  When I first 
received this for the user I logged off and the signed in as root.  When I logged on as
root, I was prompted with the same message and this time decided to use the default 
settings and had no problems.  I think the problem is with keeping the settings for the old Gnome control panel while updating to the new one. However, I get the segfault 
every time I log in as the user and not as root.

Comment 1 Kjartan Maraas 2002-01-25 16:54:19 UTC 
Please try the latest (1.4.x) version of gnome-core and gnome-libs
from http://download.gnome.org/ Contact me if you need RPMS.
Comment 2 Kjartan Maraas 2002-07-29 13:22:28 UTC 
I think this has been fixed in a later gnome-core release. Please
upgrade and let us know if it's been fixed.
