** Description changed: - Running Ubuntu ahrdy with latest archive updates. When attempting to run - onboard in any way, a segmentation fault occurs. However, whenever - booting the live CD and using the on-screen keyboard accessibility - profile, onboard loads properly. However, when you shut it down, and - attempt to run it again, the segmentatino fault occurs. + Running Ubuntu hardy with latest archive updates. When attempting to run onboard in any way, a segmentation fault occurs. However, whenever booting the live CD and using the on-screen keyboard + accessibility profile, onboard loads properly. However, when you shut it down, and attempt to run it again, the segmentatino fault occurs. - I need to try on other machines, but it seems like a race condition to - me. I haven't yet tracked down where the problem likely is just yet. + TEST CASE: + 1. Make sure the onboard package is installed. + 2. Attempt to run onboard, either from GNOME's run dialog, or from a terminal. + 3. Onboard should segfault. + 4. Install the python-virtkey package from proposed with Chris' patch. + 5. Attempt to run onboard again. + 6. Onboard should load successfully. + + Regression potential: + Since the package segfaults, except when being booted via the accessibility profile from the live CD, and since geometry information is not needed by python-virtkey, as well as onboard being the only package in the archive that depends on python-virtkey, the chance of a regression is next to nothing. + + Course for Intrepid: + As soon as intrepid opens, I will upload a fixed virtkey package.
