Description jmoore 2001-01-27 22:03:37 UTC

Package:  gnome-applets
Severity: normal
Version:  1.2.4
Synopsis: Desk-guide crashes when dialog larger than X-Window is poped up.
Class:    sw-bug

Distribution: Red Hat Linux release 6.2 (Zoot)
System: Linux 2.4.0-test9 i686 AMD Athlon(tm) Processor
C library: glibc-2.1.3-21
C compiler: egcs-2.91.66
glib: 1.2.8
GTK+: 1.2.8
ORBit: ORBit 0.5.4
gnome-libs: gnome-libs 1.2.8
libxml: 1.8.10
gnome-print: gnome-print-0.9
gnome-core: gnome-core 1.2.4


Description:
This is very reproducible when I run the openmotif demo program "todo"
and press the "help". The help is missing and hence it builds a
oversized blank
dialog (larger than the dimension of my X-Window) and the applet
crashes
immediately. Removing the help dialog allows the applet to live happily
again.

This should be easy to fix.
