Public bug reported: OK, in Dapper, if I enable the "Screenreader" option in the Assistive Technology Preferences, gnome-panel (and epiphany) die unexpectedly at certain times.
I can reproduce this by doing the following: - Log on to GNOME desktop. - Close Gnoppernicus (optional, doesn't change anything). - Hit ALT+F2, type in xcalc or vncviewer and hit Enter. - gnome-panel crashes. Disabling the Screenreader and restarting GNOME shows this issue disappears. The desired behavior is that gnome-panel does not crash. The other issue is that sometimes Epiphany just crashes too, but doesn't if Screenreader is disabled. ** Affects: gail (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: Unconfirmed -- gnome-panel dies when screenreader is enabled and... https://launchpad.net/bugs/56478 -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
