confirmed, from manually tracing the code via print statements I have determined that the problem occurs in MainClass.py on line 159 (approximately) with a call to gtk.main(). X hangs indefinitely and the call to gtk.main() never returns. The only way to kill the program is to use Ctrl+Alt+F(1, 2, or 3) and killall alarm-clock. I have heard varying assertions about the source of the problem some blaming python, others pygtk, and still others believe it is alarm clock itself. I ran a diff against MainClass.py from 0.9.18-3 and MainClass.py from 0.9.11.2 (on mint) and I came up with around 1500 lines. I'm not quite sure what to do about this although I hope a developer is watching this bug. Booting mint every night before I go to bed so that I have an alarm clock is getting old fast.
I'm attaching the file containing the diffs, hope it helps ** Attachment added: "Differences between MainClass.py in versions 0.9.18-3 and 0.9.11.2 respectively" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/26109737/thediffs -- [Jaunty RC] alarm-clock package should be removed https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/363937 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
