GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 661245
Unable to add applets to gnome panel (SIGINT)
Last modified: 2011-10-10 11:13:13 UTC
Using Dual Monitors - on the primary monitor I can add applets via the 'Add to Panel' dialog box but on the 2nd monitor when I click on the Add button for the selected applet I get the error: "Applet Name here" has quit unexpectedly. Clicking the reload button just cycles the error message.
problable crash and reload but we need the stacktrace. Because Without a stack trace from the crash it's very hard to determine what caused it. Can you get us a stack trace? Please see http://live.gnome.org/GettingTraces for more information on how to do so. Thanks in advance!

I'm out of my depth on this, however attached are two files that were generated by following http://live.gnome.org/GettingTraces . While running these sequences the error dialogue panel still pops up prompting a reload request. This still recycles as mentioned above. I don't understand the significance of the following lines: ==== 0xffffe424 in __kernel_vsyscall () (gdb) cont Continuing. [New Thread 0xa3b35b70 (LWP 25438)] [Thread 0xa3b35b70 (LWP 25438) exited] ^C Program received signal SIGINT, Interrupt. 0xffffe424 in __kernel_vsyscall () (gdb) thread apply all bt ==== Thanks for your patience.
The first stack trace shows a running panel that just got interrupted by the user while the second one is not even for a running panel ;-) My guess is that you're experiencing bug 632369. You need this patch: http://git.gnome.org/browse/gnome-panel/commit/?h=gnome-2-32&id=cb969e989477e2671d1e0cdd1519866d61d0c98c *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 632369 ***
