Thanks for any help folks.
I've now changed to the cvs version of python -gnome and pygtk, but not
the cvs version of gtk+. That seemed to help in the beginning but when i
ran more than 3 to 4 instances of the class in which i've declared the
progressbar the app froze again. If i tokk away references to the
progressbar i had no problem.
After testing alot, i found out that this seems to fix the problem:
gtk.threads_enter()
remaining_lock.acquire()
self.label0.set_text('Speed %0.2f M/s %s' % (speed, tt))
self.label2.set_text('Copy %0.2fM' % size)
self.progress.set_fraction((size/totsize))
remaining_lock.release()
gtk.threads_leave()
The lock is an RLock object from the threading module in python. I guess
there must be a bug somewhere, but i cannot explain why this is now
working.
