Description:
Time again to submit.  This time it failed after several hours of idle
time.  On 
return to the desktop the Netscape browser had given warnings that the
internet connection had failed.  (It was disconnected     prior to my
leaving for a few hours).  Clicking "OK" on warnings, the applet failed.
 I will launch it again and again put it in the panel.  I like the
applet, so I wiil keep using it. If it fails again I will contact you
again.  In the mean time, have an exellent day!

Comment 1 John Fleck 2001-06-28 14:16:13 UTC
Which applet failed? My best guess is that this happened in the
deskguide applet. Is that correct?
Comment 2 John Fleck 2001-06-29 02:32:18 UTC
From an email from the original bug author:
Yes, sorry.  I thought that the failure was ID'd in the automatic
report generated by the
automatic bug report software.  It was the deskguide applet.  It just
"dropped out", best term
I can come up with.  It does this irregularly.  No rhyme or reason.  I
cannot make it fail, I
just have to wait and report the sequence of events just prior to the
applet crash.  I wish I
could be more help.  You may get this twice.  I sent it to you
directly and as a reply to the
bugzilla.org.  Let me know if I can supply more info.  I said b4 I
like the applet.  I keep 9
screens up all the time.  So I use it to navigate a lot. Take care.

Ps, the box is home built. If that makes a difference.  No Dell or
such parts, just parts out
of shows and stores.
Comment 3 John Fleck 2001-06-29 02:33:18 UTC
Moving to gnome-core, where deskguide lives.

Can you (the original reporter) try the latest version of gnome-core?
This is where the deskguide applet lives now.
