[Bug 324115] Re: gnome-display-properties changes desktop theme
Tried to reproduce it on Ubuntu 10.10 on Elitebook 6930p (the original reporter's hardware) with no success. Maybe this can be actually closed if the original reporter doesn't exprerience the issue anymore. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/324115 Title: gnome-display-properties changes desktop theme -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 324115] Re: gnome-display-properties changes desktop theme
Running it with strace will probably not provide anything useful really. What would be useful is a backtrace using GDB, and also testing if it is still an issue in Jaunty or Karmic. To get a backtrace of gnome- settings-daemon, you need to run it with the --no-daemon option, else the parent process just exits with success when it daemonizes. Or you would need to attach GDB to an already running gnome-settings-daemon instance. seb128 already gave instructions for that several comments up (https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-settings- daemon/+bug/324115/comments/2) -- gnome-display-properties changes desktop theme https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/324115 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 324115] Re: gnome-display-properties changes desktop theme
The symptoms suggest that gnome-settings-daemon is crashing. Perhaps you could run it with strace to see what causes it to exit, if it's not a crash. Something like this: # somehow kill the current gnome-settings-daemon instance # then run a new one with strace: strace gnome-settings-daemon 2/tmp/gsd.strace # once you repro the symptoms, the end of the strace file should show what gsd did # just before it quit If you cannot interpret the file yourself, feel free to attach it here. ** Changed in: gnome-settings-daemon (Ubuntu) Status: Invalid = Incomplete -- gnome-display-properties changes desktop theme https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/324115 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

There's no 'crash' per se, just the desktop theme get corrupted. Will the debugger catch that?

[Bug 324115] Re: gnome-display-properties changes desktop theme
Hello! I've tried to reproduce your bug, and I've experienced the same problem! I've opened System-Preferences-Screen Resolution (gnome-display- properties) ; reduced my screen resolution and clicked Ok. The tool switched to the new resolution and, at the same time, it changed the theme, and stopped gnome-settings-daemon. I've also noticed that if I try to set my resolution to the previous value and I click ok, nothing happens! A possible workaround is: open a terminal and run gnome-settings-daemon , as a result the original theme is restored. At the same time I can use gnome-display-properties to set my previous resolution. (And it works as expected, without changing my theme!).
