Thank you for reporting this bug. I only figured out how to get caribou (GNOME's new screen keyboard system) working yesterday (& the GNOME Shell version only started working with Fedora 16 this week) so it's not as fully tested.
To workaround this until it gets fixed properly: 1. Install caribou 2. Add this line to /etc/xdg/autostart/onboard-autostart.desktop AutostartCondition=GNOME3 unless-session gnome 3. And add this line to /etc/xdg/autostart/caribou-autostart.desktop AutostartCondition=GNOME3 unless-session gnome-fallback That will disable Ubuntu's default screen keyboard (onboard) in GNOME Shell because having 2 onscreen keyboards on the screen at once is ridiculous. Step 3 also makes onboard the default for screen keyboard in GNOME Classic since onboard still works better than caribou's standalone mode. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/858109 Title: gnome-shell crashed with SIGSEGV in g_object_newv() To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-shell/+bug/858109/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
