I have seen that this bug has gotten the tag unreproducible, which
suprises me, as I can reporduce it always:
Here more information:
First I start gdesklets from a shell:
$ echo $LANG
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
$ gdesklets start
gdesklets-daemon wird gestartet...
In 1618 Millisekunden mit dem Daemon verbunden.
(gdesklets-daemon:5166): Pango-CRITICAL **: pango_context_load_font:
assertion `pango_font_description_get_size (desc) != 0' failed
(several of these messages ...)
Then I start the gdesklet shell
$ gdesklets shell
$
Which works.
Now I start "Memo display ver 0.2.1" with a double click and the
followingRuntime Error window pops up:
Runtime Error
/usr/share/gdesklets/Displays/memo/memo.display
An error occured while executing a desklet:
Details:
invalid literal for float(): 1.6
/usr/share/gdesklets/Sensors/IconButton/__init__.py
15
16 Sensor.__init__(self)
17 self._set_config_type("animation", TYPE_BOOL, int(animation))
18 self._set_config_type("ib_command", TYPE_STRING, cmd)

> 20 self.__scaledzoom = float(zoom)
21 self.__zoom = 1.0
22 self.__counter = 0
23 self.__change = 0
24 self.__sign = 1
25
26 self.__zoom_steps = (float(zoom) - 1.0) / self.__ANIM_STEPS
Forthermore, my CPU sweeps up to 99% used by python
PID USER PR NI VIRT RES SHR S %CPU %MEM TIME+ COMMAND
5166 norbert 15 0 42904 21m 11m S 99.0 4.2 2:29.50 python
where 5166 is the gdesklets-daemon:
5166 ? Sl 2:47 python /usr/lib/gdesklets/gdesklets-daemon
Calling gdesklets stop makes the CPU load go down immediately.
Calling desklets with
$ export LANG=C
$ gdesklets start
Starting gdesklets-daemon...
Connected to daemon in 1717 milliseconds.
(Interestingly also NO strange pango errors).
$gdesklets shell
$
I select the memo applet, it starts and is shown, without any problem.
I still cannot configure (see bug #317978)
Best wishes
