Hi, I've applied the fix that just hit the repositories. It worked however I am unable to launch gnome-appearance-properties now. In fact, my terminal font is so small that I've had to copy and paste this error into gedit :-)

This probably reflects a bug in the program. The error was 'BadPixmap (invalid Pixmap parameter)'. (Details: serial 314 error_code 4 request_code 54 minor_code 0) (Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously; that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it. To debug your program, run it with the --sync command line option to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error() function.)
