This bug does seem to be a manifestation of [Bug 805303|https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/805303]. The fix from that bug works for me. I've installed qt4-config, and used qtconfig to change the style to Motif. Problem gone (though you have to be content with the Motif style)! I can run hp-toolbox and hp-setup now.
The Python message, "Gtk-CRITICAL **: IA__gtk_widget_style_get: assertion `GTK_IS_WIDGET (widget)' failed", seems to be the clue that it's this qt4 issue. I've seen it with Picard as well, and the other bug report was originally a vlc report. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/813230 Title: Starting HP Toolbox brings system to a grinding halt To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/hplip/+bug/813230/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
