[Bug 1576424] Re: Gimp crashes with text tool & caps lock
Hi, I've applied this update to Ubuntu 16.10 Yakkety, and I'm pleased to report that it's been successful. I repeated the steps I outlined in the first comment and it did not crash. I've spent the last five minutes trying various other combinations of caps lock presses to see if I could force a crash, but all seems to work as it should. I've therefore changed the tag to verification-done.

[Bug 1576424] Re: Gimp crashes with text tool & caps lock
I'm the original submitter of this bug. I ended up reinstalling Ubuntu 14.04 because of this issue, as Gimp is an essential package for me and it was unusable because of the crashes. Today I tried installing the new Ubuntu 16.04.01 release in a spare partition in the hope that it had been fixed, but no joy. Bug is still present in the updated release and I can reliably crash Gimp with the caps lock key. I have no issues on Ubuntu 14.04.4. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1576424 Title: Gimp crashes with text tool & caps lock To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/gtk/+bug/1576424/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1576424] [NEW] Gimp crashes with text tool & caps lock
Public bug reported: Gimp crashes with a segfault when I use caps lock while renaming a layer. Steps to reproduce: 1. Open a new blank gimp document 2. select the text tool 3. type a couple of words of text (gimp will create a text layer above the background layer) 4. with the text tool still selected, click on the background layer (just to move away from the text layer) 5. now double click on the text layer to rename the layer (layer name gets highlighted) 6. press the caps lock key 7. click on the background layer again (without renaming or doing anything to the text layer) Now repeat steps 5 and 6. Gimp crashes. I can force this to happen every time I launch Gimp. Rebooting makes no difference. It seems to be the second time I press caps lock that forces the crash. I tried launching Gimp with caps lock on vs caps lock off, but I don't believe it made any difference. I can force a crash every time following the above sequence. I deleted my gimp preferences folder then rebooted for good measure. Gimp created a fresh preferences folder, but it hasn't solved the problem. I was originally in single window mode, but the new preferences folder put me back to multi window, but it crashes either way. I ran dmesg | tail after the crash and got the following line: gimp-2.8[2976]: segfault at 14 ip 7ff5100e0cd9 sp 7ffef11bfcb0 error 4 in libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0.2400.30[7ff51001b000+43e000] I'm using a fresh install of Xubuntu 16.04 with nvidia 361.42 driver (available from the Additional Drivers tab). In that same tab, I also have enabled Processor microcode firmware for Intel CPUs. Terminal tells me Gimp version is 2.8.16-1ubuntu1 I'm not very experienced with bug reporting and not sure what other information I need to supply. Gimp was absolutely rock solid on this machine with 15.10, so it may be a Xubuntu issue. Hope someone can take a look at this.
