Comment 1 Luis Villa 2002-05-15 18:07:24 UTC 
This is a known bug that is being worked on.  Hopefully, it will be
fixed in GNOME 1.4.1.

In the meantime, if you're using Red Hat Linux, please try the
gnome-libs and gnome-core packages available at
http://www.gnome.org/~kmaraas and see if those help. If
you do choose to install these packages, it would be a really great
help to us if you report back the results.

Comment 2 Kjartan Maraas 2002-05-15 21:36:02 UTC 
Please tell us what version of gettext you have and what your locale
is. You could try choosing Posix/C as language when you log into GNOME
and see if that makes the problem go away.
Comment 3 tim_allen 2002-05-16 11:37:13 UTC 
Hi,
I'm running RH 7.2 with gettext-0.10.38-7.
My locale is en_GB.

LANG=en_GB.ISO-8859-1
GDM_LANG=en_GB.ISO-8859-1

Cheers, Tim Allen.
Comment 4 Kjartan Maraas 2002-05-16 13:17:16 UTC 
Does it go away if you choose Posix/C locale in gdm at login?
Comment 5 tim_allen 2002-05-18 03:55:26 UTC 
OK, I have switched to Posix/C and I will notify you if I get this bug
again with that setting. (It's pretty random - happens probably about
1 in five sessions or so)
Comment 6 tim_allen 2002-06-04 06:35:19 UTC 
Hi, yeah it seems to be alright when using POSIX/C - I had one panel
crash in like a few weeks. Now I've switched to French and the same
crash (as above) has just happened.
Comment 7 Kjartan Maraas 2002-06-05 11:35:54 UTC 
Thanks for investigating this. We'll add this to our information about
this bug...
