I was using hardware-monitor 1.3 initially but after it failed to load and failed to rebuild (something to do with libgnomeui I think) I tried hardware-monitor-1.4 and it built correctly but it still crashes on startup or whenever I attempt to add a new applet. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Attempt to add hardware-monitor applet to gnome-panel Actual Results: Error dialog: The panel encountered a problem while loading "OFAID:HardwareMonitor". Expected Results: Load the applet
- Could you attach the build.log for hardware-monitor-1.3 please ? - The output of emerge --info is always appreciated - Have you less ambiguous logs for hardware-monitor-1.4 ?

If I run strace on gnome-panel the message I receive when I attempt to add a hardware-monitor applet is: ** (gnome-panel:2684): WARNING **: panel-applet-frame.c:1363: failed to load applet OAFIID:HardwareMonitor (cannot get popup component): Unknown CORBA exception id: 'IDL:omg.org/CORBA/COMM_FAILURE:1.0' (gnome-panel:2684): Gtk-WARNING **: A floating object was finalized. This means that someone called g_object_unref() on an object that had only a floating reference; the initial floating reference is not owned by anyone and must be removed with g_object_ref_sink().
I can confirm that 1.4.2 exhibits the same errors. Also the above error message was from the terminal output of gnome-panel not strace (obviously) because strace segfaults after the panel loads.
I am having the same problems and have had the problem since gnome 2.24. I opened a thread about it before the upgrade to 2.26 http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-794256-highlight-.html This bug shouldn't be marked as resolved, nothing is fixed.
it will be reopened if someone provides info required in comment #1.
I dont have a problem with building any of the versions of hardware-monitor. I can successfully emerge 1.3, 1.4 and 1.4.2. I just cant run any of them. do you still want to see my emerge --info anyways?
Isn't it easier to just simply include it instead of asking if it's useful or not?

Can someone mark this as unresolved? this problem still exists.
(In reply to comment #11) > Can someone mark this as unresolved? this problem still exists. > did you try 1.4.2 ?
Yes I did, 1.4.2 does the same crashing thing as all the other versions.

it looks like we're dealing with two seperate problems in this bug report, one for not compiling and not running. the not running part is still broken.
(In reply to comment #16) > the not running part is still broken. > IE ? my patch normally fixes the crash on startup , at least with gnome 2.28 (it works just fine here), not with 2.26 ? o_O I doubt that this part changed between gconf-2.26 and gconf-2.28...

reopen per comment 16 and some feedbacks on IRC
I just emerged the latest 1.4.2-r2, and it acts slightly differently, but still very unstable. When I goto add the hardware-monitor, it tells me: "Hardware Monitor" has quit unexpectedly If you reload a panel object, it will automatically be addec back to the panel. Screenshot of this: http://img20.imageshack.us/img20/9043/screenshotla.png After I click reload, I get my favorite crash message: http://img20.imageshack.us/img20/6504/screenshot1fn.png (In reply to comment #17) > (In reply to comment #16) > > the not running part is still broken. > > > > IE ? > my patch normally fixes the crash on startup , at least with gnome 2.28 (it > works just fine here), not with 2.26 ? o_O > I doubt that this part changed between gconf-2.26 and gconf-2.28... > > For example, still the same log ?

Hiya John, please can you check that you're using both gconf-2.28.0-r1 and hardware-monitor-1.4.2-r1? If you don't have the latest gconf, you'll be hitting another error that's known about. If that still doesn't work, you might be able to get a back trace by remove all hardware-monitors from your panel, then running "gdb /usr/libexec/hardware-monitor" followed by run in the console that's created. Finally, you can add a hardware monitor back to the panel. This should cause gdb to stop, at which point you can type "bt" to get a backtrace, and if you copy and paste that in here, it might help us identify what's going wrong... 5:)
just emerged gconf-2.28.0-r1, and the panels seem to load now. I will play around with them some more.
alright after playing with it, I found that changing the viewer mode causes it to through the message: "Hardware Monitor" has quit unexpectedly If you reload a panel object, it will automatically be added back to the panel. I click reload, and the panel comes back, however it keeps the old default curves style of a graph. so we are halfway there.
can anyone reproduce what I am experiencing or do we need logs from my computer?
Hiya Jon, I've just tried cycling through all the viewer modes and haven't managed to hit the crash you mentioned, so it would be best if you could send back the backtrace/bugbuddy information from your machine. Thanks... 5:)

Please follow the instructions provided in comment 20.
Reassign to the developer who is able to maintain this package now.

Hiya Jon, Unfortunately that doesn't help me track it down much, because you don't have debugging information available in all your programs (hence some of the calls are showing up as ??). If you're up for it, there's a guide for producing useful backtraces at [1]. At the moment, all we really know is that the segfault appears to occur in CanvasAA in gnomecanvasmm when the object's being destructed, however all the calls leading up to that point are unknown. I don't know that I'll be able to track down the problem even if you provide more complete backtraces, so it's up to you whether you want to put the effort in. As I say, I haven't been able to duplicate this, but then I also don't have an amd64 machine to test this on, but perhaps recompiling some of the packages involved and/or running "revdep-rebuild -i" might help? Sorry I don't have anything of more use for you... [1] http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/qa/backtraces.xml
I got bored and recompiled libgnomecanvasmm and now it seems to work. hasnt crashed yet, but I will report back if something happens.
Ok, since we can't recreate the issue now, I'm going to mark this as FIXED. Please leave a comment if you're still experiencing this issue and I'll be happy to reopen it... 5:)
