Category: None Group: None >Status: Closed Resolution: None Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: yyonline (yyonline) Assigned to: Daniel Atallah (datallah) Summary: Gaim hangs when changing display settings Initial Comment: To reproduce bug: 1. Start Gaim 2. Make sure the buddy list is currently in view. 3. Open Windows display properties. (Right-click desktop, select properties) 4. Click the appearance tab. 5. Under the Windows and Buttons drop-down, change from Windows XP style to windows classic style or vice-versa. 6. Apply the changes. At this point, GAIM 2.0.0 beta 3 hangs. Task manager shows Gaim using nearly 100% CPU. Sometimes Gaim will recover after 5-10 mins, other times it will continue to hang, requiring ending the process. Sometimes it will hang when changing other display settings, such as shadows or colors, but the windows and buttons setting seems to make it hang every time. Beta 2 did not display this problem. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: yyonline (yyonline) Date: 2006-05-05 12:23 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=1517080 I figured it might be a GTK+ problem. I've been using Gaim 1.5 for some time, and 2.0.0 b2 for a little bit. I never had it hang until beta 3. Just to verfiy, I went back to beta 2, and no more hangs. Maybe its just a quirk on my system, but for me at least, only beta 3 seems to do this. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Daniel Atallah (datallah) Date: 2006-05-05 10:14 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=325843 Beta2 and every other version has done this too. It is a GTK+ issue. In fact, it will happen when simply changing the desktop background image. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=680472&aid=1482228&group_id=235 ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by DB2 Express Download DB2 Express C - the FREE version of DB2 express and take control of your XML.
