Package: gnome-panel Version: 2.24.3-1 Severity: normal Tags: patch How to reproduce that bug :
1. Right clic on the default ubuntu bottom panel and click on "properties" 2. Change "Bottom" to "Right" and increase the size to 30 pixels or more ( icons must appear in the windows list in the gnome-panel when the panel is in the right of the screen ) 3. Once the panel is at right, open 8 windows. Result : Gnome panel is now completely freeze, except the notification area. This is copy/past from this Ubuntu bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/gnome-panel/+bug/187540 The upstream bug report: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=513347 It contains a patch from Marek Paska which fix the bugi (at least for me): http://bugzilla.gnome.org/attachment.cgi?id=113638 Vincent Untz explain why the patch is rejected. From him the right way to fix this bug is to fix an other bug which as been submited in 2002. May be using the Marek Paska patch in the Debian package would be a temporary and pragmatic solution. -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (900, 'unstable'), (800, 'testing') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.29-1-686 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: lang=fr...@euro, lc_ctype=fr...@euro (charmap=ISO-8859-15) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages gnome-panel depends on: ii gnome-about 2.24.3-1 The GNOME about box ii gnome-control-center 1:2.24.0.1-2 utilities to configure the GNOME d ii gnome-desktop-data 2.24.3-1 Common files for GNOME 2 desktop a ii gnome-menus 2.24.2-2 an implementation of the freedeskt ii gnome-panel-data 2.24.3-1 common files for the GNOME Panel ii libatk1.0-0 1.24.0-2 The ATK accessibility toolkit ii libbonobo2-0 2.24.1-1 Bonobo CORBA interfaces library ii libbonoboui2-0 2.24.1-1 The Bonobo UI library ii libc6 2.9-6 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libcairo2 1.8.6-2+b1 The Cairo 2D vector graphics libra ii libdbus-1-3 1.2.12-1 simple interprocess messaging syst ii libdbus-glib-1-2 0.80-3 simple interprocess messaging syst ii libecal1.2-7 2.24.5-4+b1 Client library for evolution calen ii libedataserver1.2-11 2.24.5-4+b1 Utility library for evolution data ii libedataserverui1.2-8 2.24.5-4+b1 GUI utility library for evolution ii libgconf2-4 2.24.0-7 GNOME configuration database syste ii libglade2-0 1:2.6.4-1 library to load .glade files at ru ii libglib2.0-0 2.20.1-1 The GLib library of C routines ii libgnome-desktop-2 2.22.3-2 Utility library for loading .deskt ii libgnome-menu2 2.24.2-2 an implementation of the freedeskt ii libgnome2-0 2.24.1-2 The GNOME 2 library - runtime file ii libgnomeui-0 2.24.1-1 The GNOME 2 libraries (User Interf ii libgtk2.0-0 2.14.7-5 The GTK+ graphical user interface ii libgweather1 2.24.3-1 GWeather shared library ii liborbit2 1:2.14.17-0.1 libraries for ORBit2 - a CORBA ORB ii libpanel-applet2-0 2.24.3-1 library for GNOME Panel applets ii libpango1.0-0 1.24.0-3 Layout and rendering of internatio ii libpolkit-dbus2 0.9-3 library for accessing PolicyKit vi ii libpolkit2 0.9-3 library for accessing PolicyKit ii librsvg2-2 2.22.3-2 SAX-based renderer library for SVG ii libwnck22 2.24.2-2 Window Navigator Construction Kit ii libx11-6 2:1.2.1-1 X11 client-side library ii libxau6 1:1.0.4-2 X11 authorisation library ii menu-xdg 0.4 freedesktop.org menu compliant win Versions of packages gnome-panel recommends: pn alacarte <none> (no description available) pn evolution-data-server <none> (no description available) ii gnome-applets 2.24.3.1-2 Various applets for GNOME 2 panel ii gnome-icon-theme 2.24.0-4 GNOME Desktop icon theme ii gnome-session 2.22.3-3 The GNOME 2 Session Manager ii gvfs 1.0.3-3 userspace virtual filesystem - ser pn policykit-gnome <none> (no description available) Versions of packages gnome-panel suggests: pn epiphany-browser <none> (no description available) pn evolution <none> (no description available) ii gdm 2.20.9-1 GNOME Display Manager ii gnome-session 2.22.3-3 The GNOME 2 Session Manager pn gnome-system-tools <none> (no description available) ii gnome-terminal [x-term 2.24.3-3 The GNOME 2 terminal emulator appl pn gnome2-user-guide <none> (no description available) ii konsole [x-terminal-em 4:3.5.10.dfsg.1-2 X terminal emulator for KDE pn nautilus <none> (no description available) ii xterm [x-terminal-emul 242-1 X terminal emulator pn yelp <none> (no description available) -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
