I do not have the problem with a similar machine (that is running Lenny for one year now, never having Etch there). This clearly looks like the result of having a b0rked ~/.gtkrc-* file. Thanks for this hint - it really solved my issue to delete those two files. They contained the following before: ~# cat .gtkrc-2.0 # -- THEME AUTO-WRITTEN DO NOT EDIT include /usr/share/themes/Clearlooks/gtk-2.0/gtkrc include /home/richard/.gtkrc-2.0.mine # -- THEME AUTO-WRITTEN DO NOT EDIT ~# cat .gtkrc-1.2-gnome2 # Autowritten by gnome-settings-daemon. Do not edit include /home/richard/.gtkrc.mine ~# Those .mine files did not exist. On another system (running Lenny from the beginning, no upgrade from Etch), there is only the .gtkrc-1.2-gnome2 file and I have had no problems. So maybe the upgrade process should recommend removing the .gtkrc-2.0 file? Richard -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Bug#503451: gnome: Hang and 100 % CPU load after small appearance change
Package: gnome Severity: important Having upgraded my amd64 system from etch to lenny, I tried changing some appearance options and this is the result: - gnome-appearance-properties takes 100 % cpu load (one core fully loaded) and does not load theme previews (big question mark stays there) - changing two small options (Glanz (german) and different foreground color) resulted in gnome-settings-daemon to take 100 % cpu load, too. This also occured after rebooting and logging in again (without running anything in Gnome) - this also resulted in a gnome-settings-daemon could not be started message when trying to launch the appearance properties - removed .gconf and .gconfd in home folder - no longer 100 % gnome-settings-dameon load, but of course lost all my configuration - still having 100 % load when launching gnome-appearance-properties, closing the window does not help, SIGTERM needed. gnome-appearance-properties output when started from command line: --- (gnome-appearance-properties:7061): appearance-properties-WARNING **: Unknown Tag: comment (gnome-appearance-properties:7061): appearance-properties-WARNING **: Unknown Tag: comment --- Please direct me to some usefull steps to resolve that issue.
