[Desktop-packages] [Bug 878993] Re: x.org lockup after dragging archived file to desktop
Great. The bug seems to be fixed! I tested the following (using a live CD of Lubuntu 12.04): 1) ctrl + alt + F2 2) sudo service lightdm stop 3) sudo add-apt-repository ppa:lubuntu-dev/lubuntu-daily 4) sudo apt-get update 5) sudo apt-get install pcmanfm 6) sudo service lightdm start Then I dragged a file from an archive to the desktop. --> No freezing anymore !!

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 878993] Re: x.org lockup after dragging archived file to desktop
I think that file-roller is not the main problem. And here is the reason why: I tried to reproduce the bug on a different test system. Downloaded linuxmint-12-lxde-cd-32bit.iso and started it in virtualbox. Linux Mint LXDE uses a combination of pcmanfm and ( instead of file-roller) the xarchiver as its default archive manager. When I first dragged a file from within an archive to the desktop, xarchiver crashed (without freezing the system). Then I reopened the archive and this time the dnd action was successful. Then next time --> crash. Next time --> success. Next time --> crash. Next time --> success. So, every other time, the dnd action crashes the archiver program. This behaviour is reproducable by file-roller as well as the xarchiver, which IMHO rules out file-roller as the cause for the bug. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to file-roller in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/878993 Title: x.org lockup after dragging archived file to desktop Status in PCManFM - File Manager: Unknown Status in “file-roller” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Status in “pcmanfm” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: 1 - Description: Ubuntu 11.10 Release:11.10 2 - file-roller: Installed: 3.2.0-0ubuntu1 Candidate: 3.2.0-0ubuntu1 Version table: *** 3.2.0-0ubuntu1 0 500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ oneiric/main i386 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status 3 - I was trying to extract a file with fileroller.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 878993] Re: x.org lockup after dragging archived file to desktop
You are right, karl. I have also tested it using lubuntu-12.04-beta2-desktop-i386.iso in virtualbox and I did not succeed. Then I kept on trying and found another weired 'solution' that worked: 1) Start Lubuntu-12.04-beta2.iso using virtualbox (I did not test it yet on real hardware) 2) Place an archive on your desktop (i.e. named as 'archive.tar.gz') 3) Open a terminal 4) Type: sudo file-roller ~/Desktop/archive.tar.gz 5) Try drag&drop 6) --> crash ! But no problem 7) Press Alt+F2 to get the "Run application" window 8) Type: killall file-roller 9) Do 4) and 5) again 10) --> success 11) Do it again --> crash 12) Do it again --> success Also if you keep the archive open after the first successful dnd action, it crashes when you retry dnd. Isn't that weired? I don't know what this means, but at least we maybe have something pointing (anyone of us) to the solution of this problem. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to file-roller in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/878993 Title: x.org lockup after dragging archived file to desktop Status in PCManFM - File Manager: Unknown Status in “file-roller” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Status in “pcmanfm” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: 1 - Description: Ubuntu 11.10 Release:11.10 2 - file-roller: Installed: 3.2.0-0ubuntu1 Candidate: 3.2.0-0ubuntu1 Version table: *** 3.2.0-0ubuntu1 0 500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ oneiric/main i386 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status 3 - I was trying to extract a file with fileroller.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 878993] Re: x.org lockup after dragging archived file to desktop
Is it just about permissions? Can anyone of you guys confirm the following successful dnd action? 1) Place an archive on your desktop (i.e. named as 'archive.tar.gz') 2) Open a terminal and cd right to the desktop 3) Type: sudo file-roller archive.tar.gz 4) Then drag and drop to the desktop This worked in my case. But it did not work, when I only started file-roller as root and opened the archive.tar.gz from within the programs user interface. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to file-roller in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/878993 Title: x.org lockup after dragging archived file to desktop Status in PCManFM - File Manager: Unknown Status in “file-roller” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Status in “pcmanfm” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: 1 - Description: Ubuntu 11.10 Release:11.10 2 - file-roller: Installed: 3.2.0-0ubuntu1 Candidate: 3.2.0-0ubuntu1 Version table: *** 3.2.0-0ubuntu1 0 500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ oneiric/main i386 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status 3 - I was trying to extract a file with fileroller.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 878993] Re: extracting file by dnd leads to freeze for non nautilus users
As expected, the bug is still present in Lubuntu 12.04 beta1 (desktop i386). I tested it today in live-cd mode using virtualbox. But there is another thing that may be helpful to decide, whether pcmanfm or file-roller are causing the problem: when I installed Xarchiver and dragged a file from an archive to the desktop, sometimes the programme also crashes right in the moment when crossing the border of the Xarchivers window. But this is not freezing the whole system (like in the case when using file-roller).

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 878993] Re: When I try to extract file by just drag and drop by mouse, everything freezes
I also confirm this bug. In lubuntu 11.10 my workaround to "fix" it was to install nautilus. Then I could drag files from an archive (opened with file-roller) to a nautilus window. But it still crashed, if I dragged the file to the lubuntu desktop (which means pcmanfm, right?). So the reason for the bug seams to be related to nautilus dependencies. Maybe this information is helpful.
