Actually, the theme was CleanIce, and it was successfully loaded just before the application crashed. Andreas
Appears to be a unique stack trace, according to the simple-dup-finder. Setting version->2.2.x, marking severity->critical (it's a crasher), adding GNOMEVER2.2 and bugsquad keywords, and marking as new.
*** Bug 115160 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
The duplicate has the function g_get_current_time instead of unblock_source in the stack trace. I don't think it's relevant, but thought I'd mention it just in case. Information from that reporter: Steps to reproduce the problem: 1. Install gnome with gnome-themes 2. select gnome-themes and click on Crux 3. It crashes. How often does this happen? randomly Additional Information: RedHat 9 with Ximian Gnome Desktop 2.
I believe this is a duplicate of bug 105268, but I'm not completely sure.
I don't think it is

Something to brighten your day--the additional information from bug 118856: Description of Problem: crash bang boom (in my best Bjork impression) Steps to reproduce the problem: 1. Install Redhat9 then Ximian Desktop then go crazy installing fonts and themes 2. When system stability goes down reinstall RH9 from the LTSP Project 3. mount /dev/{olddrive} /old chown it then edit /etc/passwd, login and naively expect it all to just work ;) Actual Results: ran theme changer selected theme and kapow! How often does this happen? I'll let you know Additional Information: Do not try this at home

anybody still getting this bug ?
I haven't seen it for a while, but I haven't been using the gartoon theme. I'll switch back to it and see if it comes up again.
any news on this ?
I was the original reporter. I don't have any issues with the theme manager in GNOME 2.8.
Okay, thanks for following up, Andreas. I'll go ahead and mark as closed.
