This also happens when using fullscreen (without using slideshow) - see duplicate bug. Especially since EOG is the default action when users double-click on an image file, this crasher is really bad.
For many regular users, watching the digital photos on their hard drive is core functionality. If EOG won't be fixed, please consider shipping e.g. gthumb as the default image viewer. -- EOG crashes when stopping slideshow https://launchpad.net/bugs/43322 -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
