Package: i8kutils Version: 1.27 Severity: minor
I reported this as a gnome-swallow-applet bug (#346256) last month but that has received no action. Perhaps it is actually an i8kmon bug? xref http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=346256 When I add a swallow applet to my panel and configure it to run i8kmon it works initially but when I log out and log back in to GNOME the i8kmon runs but does not get swallowed. First I get an error dialog: Swallower Applet: Could not find a window named "i8kmon" (ran program "i8kmon") Then later the i8kmon starts in it's own non-swallowed window. If I right click on the blank area in the panel where the swallowed applet should be I get the reconfigure menu and if I just click "ok" without changing the already filled-in values the running applet gets swallowed. I have tried with several variations of configuring the applet. For "Program to run" I have tried "i8kmon" and "/usr/bin/i8kmon". For "Window name to swallow" I have tried "i8kmon" and I have tried leaving it blank. I get the same behavior every time: it works at first but fails to work on re-login. The man page for i8kmon says: The program can be ... swallowed in the gnome panel. I have had this problem under both sarge and etch. ii gnome-swallow-applet 1.2-2 meta-applet to embed any application in the -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.15-2006021502 Locale: LANG=en_US, LC_CTYPE=en_US (charmap=ISO-8859-1) Versions of packages i8kutils depends on: ii libc6 2.3.5-13 GNU C Library: Shared libraries an ii tk8.3 [wish] 8.3.5-6 Tk toolkit for Tcl and X11, v8.3 - ii tk8.4 [wish] 8.4.12-1 Tk toolkit for Tcl and X11, v8.4 - i8kutils recommends no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
