The latest version of mate-control-center DOES NOT CRASH. The problem is the application is *not able to detect the monitor properties* and is *not able to save* the manually-defined properties. My bug report contains a detailed description (from a user's point of view). The version that crashes for me is the one in testing, which is supposed to be stable enough but is not for me. Should I report the crash against 1.8.3 or is it unnecessary?

I just sent one, and I have no idea what you are working on. While I and others are grateful for your work, I certainly do not follow it closely enough to know what you are doing :) >This is currently work-in-progress and hence bugs are to be >expected.

I expect them and I am willing to report those, hoping that it's useful for you to know. If it is not, just ignore them, but I think you'd better read them before discarding them... >Those bugs reports are an annoyance and completely unnecessary.
