having the same problem with openoffice also running hardy amd64 2.6.24-19-generic when i boot into a secondary test account that i made since OO.o went bad, everything's fine from my primary account i can "sudo soffice" and it works, but if i "sudo soffice -write" i get the same locking assertion failure when i boot into 2.6.22-15-generic [leftover after upgrading from gutsy] OO.o works, though my video drivers are screwy
a few minutes ago there was a new series of updates, including one for the kernel, and two others that sounded related. i applied them, rebooted, no luck. sorry i'm not terribly helpful on what these last three were, i was too busy being excited to see what looked like fixes to write down what they were. thanks to everyone working on this. -- hardy, locking assertion failure, xorg/libsdl https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/185311 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to pygtk in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
