[Bug 147040] Re: gnome-appearance-properties is very slow and its GUI does not refresh
Hi, In Ubuntu 6.06 and in 7.04 I remember that gnome-appearance-properties did work like a charm. As soon as one did change the color it had immediate effect in all applications, selected items and window borders. Fast and stable. Reliable. But in 7.10 and now in 8.04 it does not work so well, regarding that it is not so fast and also it does not change the color of the window borders, even if one closes and starts again the different windows. Also, the selected text within a window (in Firefox or in Gedit, as 2 examples), it also does not change to the new color. I've found out that for the new color to be reflected in the windows border one has to close and re-start the gnome-appearance-properties application (it does not work to close and start other windows or applications). And then, for the new color to be in the texts, one has also to close and re-start the respective applications. The only things which still change correctly and immediately the color it are the selected elements in the menu bars of Gnome and those within the different applications. -- gnome-appearance-properties is very slow and its GUI does not refresh https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/147040 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 147040] Re: gnome-appearance-properties is very slow and its GUI does not refresh
Hi again, Not always the colors change even when re-starting gnome-appearance- properties... It simply resist the colors to be changed. As well, I tried to start gnome-appearance-properties from the terminal as sudo but I get an ERROR message. I attach you the screen image with the error (in Spanish). It says that: It cannot be started manager configuration gnome- settings-daemon. If the agent of configuration of GNOME is not being executed, it is possible that some of the preferences won't work. This can be the symptom of a problem with Bonobo or that an agent of configuration that is not of GNOME (for example KDE) already is active and in conflict with the agent of configuration of GNOME. And I do not have installed the gtk-qt-engine. ** Attachment added: gnome appearance properties error.png http://launchpadlibrarian.net/17516955/gnome%20appearance%20properties%20error.png -- gnome-appearance-properties is very slow and its GUI does not refresh https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/147040 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Thank you for your bug. Does it eat CPU while it slow? Does it happen with an another user on the same configuration? ** Changed in: gnome-control-center (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided = Low Assignee: (unassigned) = Ubuntu Desktop Bugs (desktop-bugs) Status: New = Incomplete -- gnome-appearance-properties is very slow and its GUI does not refresh https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/147040 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 147040] Re: gnome-appearance-properties is very slow and its GUI does not refresh
Thank you for the replies. I followed the tip of the guys from https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gtk-qt-engine/+bug/138726 and found out that i just have to remove the gtk-qt-engine package. Now it works fine, but I do not know if doing that is the best solution and if it has no unwanted side effect. As for Sebastien Bacher's question, I cannot test it now that it is fixed for me, but I remember that when I ran the app as root, it was fine. -- gnome-appearance-properties is very slow and its GUI does not refresh https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/147040 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Your terminal output looks like bug #145059, but I don't know if that's causing the slowness. ** Changed in: gnome-control-center (Ubuntu) Sourcepackagename: None = gnome-control-center -- gnome-appearance-properties is very slow and its GUI does not refresh https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/147040 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
