Thank you for your information. Maybe this gets me somewhere. Tried installing 'docbook (which wasn't installed on my system)', no avail Mallard seems not to be a package that can be (re)installed Already tried reinstalling yelp earlier, also no avail
It confuses me that the command 'yelp ghelp:gnome-terminal' from cli doesn't trigger the bug, so the problem is in the 'link' between the app and yelp(?) Xorg CPU shoots up, maybe it's a Xorg thing? Compiz? Am I the only one having this? Thanks for further help... -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to yelp in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1005510 Title: yelp steals focus, cannot be killed, hogs system Status in “yelp” package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: When opened from certain applications (eg grsync and terminal) but not others (eg nautilus and gedit), the yelp window stays empty, steals focus (forces itself on forground) and cannot be force killed. The system becomes unusable, although everything seems to continue working. CPU load increases dramatically, Xorg is the main culprit Only solution to get control back over the system is a Alt-SysRq-REISUB reboot. Nothing relevant in .xsession-errors; i have no idea where to look or what to look for in other logs Should i file a bug? Yelp? Xorg? Anyone else with this problem? Please help... Here's a video showing what the problem is: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZgH4BmdF4iE&feature=youtu.be I'll be happy to provide log entries, upon request. I can't gdb backtrace since yelp started from terminal without arguments works flawlessly.
