Description Esteban 2003-12-30 05:19:49 UTC
I updated my system to use kernel 2.6. gdesklets was correctly working...

Then, I decided to use nptl, rebuild glibc (and all packages that uses nptl). gdesklets stopped to work correctly.

Then, I choosed to rebuild all my system... Same problem.

gdesklets starts quite well, but when desklets are updated, it freezes.

Reproducible: Always

Comment 2 foser (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-02-29 09:09:16 UTC
obz since you seem to handle gdesklet bugs, assigning to you directly.
Comment 3 Mike Gardiner (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-04-27 04:58:01 UTC
Does this still occur with the newest gdesklets-0.26.1?

I can't confirm/test with an nptl setup unfortunately..
Comment 4 Mike Gardiner (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-07-18 02:56:55 UTC
Reporter ping, is this still a problem with gdesklets-core-0.26.2?
Comment 5 inode77 2004-08-29 16:34:59 UTC
No problems so far here, it works fine!

Last report was okay, and no traffic since then, closing.
