Comment 6 Behdad Esfahbod 2006-11-28 18:13:50 UTC

Apparently what's happening is that two size request signals are being run from two threads, and trying to size the same label, they hit a re-entrancy problem in PangoLayout.  PangoLayout is not thread-safe, and will not be.  So, someone else should be fixed here.

Comment 7 morten 2006-11-28 18:25:44 UTC

I have some more info on 379935 (filed as a duplicate of 373581). If I start network-admin with "sudo network-admin", it opens up just fine. If I start it from the gnome menu, it crashes.

Comment 12 Carlos Garnacho 2007-12-26 02:37:12 UTC

Thanks for taking the time to report this bug.
However, you are using a version that is too old and not supported anymore. GNOME developers are no longer working on that version, so unfortunately there will not be any bug fixes for the version that you use.

By upgrading to a newer version of GNOME you could receive bug fixes and new functionality. You may need to upgrade your Linux distribution to obtain a newer version of GNOME.
Please feel free to reopen this bug if the problem still occurs with a newer version of GNOME.
