For what it's worth, when I first tried to use the font app by launching
through the launcher, I consistently got freezes described as above.
Launched it directly by invoking it on command line, and then haven't
had a problem again since then, either via the launcher or command line.

Title:
gnome-font-viewer crashed with signal 5 in _XEventsQueued()
Status in gnome-font-viewer package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
Reproducible crash (tested on Ubuntu and Xubuntu) or freezing of
application during ISO testing of a live-session.
Application will crash if there is an attempt to close it or scroll
through fonts. On one occasion my laptop was rendered unusable when
Firefox was launched while trying to report the crash to Launchpad.
After the bug report has been sent gnome-font-viewer will freeze when
automatically restarted. No fonts are displayed.
