Binary package hint: community-themes
Ubuntu 8.10 64-bit (on HP Compaq 6735S).
Changing a Gnome theme (System > Pref. > Appearance) while running
several applications (Firefox has been mentioned in other bug reports,
but as far as I can see none of them match these symptoms exactly)
causes 100-% CPU usage, a quick rise in ACPI temperature (from ca. 50 to
> 60 C) and a hang that forces to hard-reset.
What is more, the chosen theme does not look as it should after reboot:
DarkRoom has elements of Kin (Kin colour scheme but DarkRoom window
decorations). Somehow, the Kin theme belonging to the community-themes
package (containing also Dust and NewWave themes) seems to occasionally
override other themes — I have seen this happening more than once, also
without the symptoms mentioned above.
** Affects: gnome-control-center (Ubuntu)
