For those of you just joining the thread, the bug is that if you hit Ctrl-r to reload the document and get prompted "REPOST DATA?" and if you hit the space bar on OK or tab-enter quickly or click at the same time, sound keeps playing fine, you can move the cursor but you are not able to click on anything or keyboard out. In fact, if I hit Caps-Lock or NumLock the keyboard light doesn't even register. > > How reproducible is it?

I've had the same bug with other GTK apps (Pan), although I'm not conviced that it is a GTK bug, to be clear. Also, it does not crash the system.

If you think it's a bug with the Galeon code, you should fill out a bug report and send it to the developers. That sounds like a pretty serious bug, and they'd certianly want to know about it. > Somewhat reproducible... How reproducible is it?

Show-stopping Galeon bug!
If you use the Galeon browser, be careful or mindful of the following bug that has actually crashed *look of awe!* my system 3 or 4 times now. Somewhat reproducible... If you press Ctrl-r to refresh the loaded URL and a dialog appears asking to REPOST form data and you either hit the Enter key or spacebar or click OK at the same time (something frantic like that, or hold down Ctrl-r and press Enter) you will still be able to move the mouse around (clicking does nothing) but the keyboard will be ignored (Alt-tab, Esc, C-A-BKSP, Ctrl-\, Ctrl-. etc) and pressing the "NumLock" or "CapsLock" keys will not light up their LEDs. Dead in the water not in the water though. Has anyone else witnessed this? I had an mp3 playing on "xmms" player and it continued to play fine. Because of the crash, (technically not a crash, but what do you call being isolated from all input means such as mouse and keyboard?) I was forced to press my unit's Reset button (I waited until the mp3 finished playing due to HDD access). Has anyone else witness this or something similar with Mozilla? -- Peter Leftwich President & Founder, Video2Video Services Box 13692, La Jolla, CA, 92039 USA http://Www.Video2Video.Com To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
