[Bug 316575] Re: Changing theme causes 100 % CPU & hang
Steps to reproduce (this has worked every time so far): 1. Start Conky, showing CPU usage & acpi_temp. 2. Start Firefox. 3. Open System > Preferences > Appearance > Themes. 4. Change the theme. 5. Verify CPU usage rising quickly into 100% and staying there. 6. Verify a quick increase in ACPI temp (Conky works all the time during this), e.g. from 45 C to 63 C. 7. Verify that the Firefox window "has darkened" and that mouse clicks produce no response. 8. Drop into VT (Ctrl+Alt+F3), log in and start top; try killing relevant processes (I killed Firefox and the process beginning gnome-appearance--- as well as some 3rd process...) and return to the X session (Alt+Ctrl+F7). 9. Verify that the session situation has not changed (X hangs?). 10. Drop into VT (TTY 3) and do sudo poweroff. 11. Restart the computer and log in to X. 12. Verify that the theme appearance has changed, but not as expected: the theme seems like a mixture of two themes. Sorry for the possible terminological confusion &c; I am a non-tech user.

[Bug 316575] Re: Changing theme causes 100 % CPU & hang
Thank you for your attention. I took the following steps: (1) Closed Firefox. (2) Went to System > Preferences > Appearance > Themes, tried to change from my Custom theme to Human default theme. By this procedure, I could reproduce the 100-% CPU usage, fast increase of ACPI temp (from ca. 48 to ca 62 C) and partial X session hang (not possible to affect the "Appearance" window by using the touchpad). I dropped into VT and rebooted. I noticed for a second time that the Conky window appearance had changed (seems "normal" instead of "desktop", but restarting Conky restores my "desktop" setting). And the Human theme had an unusual hue too, I think, after reboot. Next I changed the theme again, from Human to my Custom theme (I call it DustyFox because it's based on Dust, colours modified, with Foxtrot icons), without problems. In order to be able to post this, I will not experiment further, until I have submitted this comment... Nevertheless, this MIGHT be specific to my custom theme, or the community-themes package, containing Dust, Kin and New Wave. As I said, my DustyFox custom theme is based on Dust. Its window decorations are from the DarkRoom theme. Strangely enough, Kin seems to "infect" other themes with its remarkable colouring: even Human had this strange light yellowish tint after reboot. -- Changing theme causes 100 % CPU & hang https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/316575 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-control-center in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 316575] Re: Changing theme causes 100 % CPU & hang
Once again, I reproduced the bug. I changed from my custom DustyFox to DarkRoom and the same symptoms occurred. I rebooted, observed that DarkRoom did not look as expected but rather as a mixture of DarkRoom and Kin. Then I changed into Human, and the Kin colours remained. Cf. the attached screenshot to see what I mean. It should be the default Human theme, but is not. I suppose the next step might be to remove the community-themes package and try whether I can still reproduce the bug without it. This does not seem to depend on whether Firefox is running or not (there are a few bug reports with remotely same kind of behaviour, which mention FF). ** Attachment added: "Screenshot-25.jpg" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/21155640/Screenshot-25.jpg -- Changing theme causes 100 % CPU & hang https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/316575 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-control-center in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

[Bug 316575] Re: Changing theme causes 100 % CPU & hang
Once again, I reproduced the bug. I changed from my custom DustyFox to DarkRoom and the same symptoms occurred. I rebooted, observed that DarkRoom did not look as expected but rather as a mixture of DarkRoom and Kin. Then I changed into Human, and the Kin colours remained. Cf. the attached screenshot to see what I mean. It should be the default Human theme, but is not. I suppose the next step might be to remove the community-themes package and try whether I can still reproduce the bug without it. This does not seem to depend on whether Firefox is running or not (there are a few bug reports with remotely same kind of behaviour, which mention FF). ** Attachment added: "Screenshot-25.jpg" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/21155640/Screenshot-25.jpg -- Changing theme causes 100 % CPU & hang https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/316575 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-control-center in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

[Bug 316575] Re: Changing theme causes 100 % CPU & hang
Steps to reproduce (this has worked every time so far): 1. Start Conky, showing CPU usage & acpi_temp. 2. Start Firefox. 3. Open System > Preferences > Appearance > Themes. 4. Change the theme. 5. Verify CPU usage rising quickly into 100% and staying there. 6. Verify a quick increase in ACPI temp (Conky works all the time during this), e.g. from 45 C to 63 C. 7. Verify that the Firefox window "has darkened" and that mouse clicks produce no response. 8. Drop into VT (Ctrl+Alt+F3), log in and start top; try killing relevant processes (I killed Firefox and the process beginning gnome-appearance--- as well as some 3rd process...) and return to the X session (Alt+Ctrl+F7). 9. Verify that the session situation has not changed (X hangs?). 10. Drop into VT (TTY 3) and do sudo poweroff. 11. Restart the computer and log in to X. 12. Verify that the theme appearance has changed, but not as expected: the theme seems like a mixture of two themes. Sorry for the possible terminological confusion &c; I am a non-tech user.

[Bug 316575] Re: Changing theme causes 100 % CPU & hang
Thank you for your attention. I took the following steps: (1) Closed Firefox. (2) Went to System > Preferences > Appearance > Themes, tried to change from my Custom theme to Human default theme. By this procedure, I could reproduce the 100-% CPU usage, fast increase of ACPI temp (from ca. 48 to ca 62 C) and partial X session hang (not possible to affect the "Appearance" window by using the touchpad). I dropped into VT and rebooted. I noticed for a second time that the Conky window appearance had changed (seems "normal" instead of "desktop", but restarting Conky restores my "desktop" setting). And the Human theme had an unusual hue too, I think, after reboot. Next I changed the theme again, from Human to my Custom theme (I call it DustyFox because it's based on Dust, colours modified, with Foxtrot icons), without problems. In order to be able to post this, I will not experiment further, until I have submitted this comment...
