Public bug reported:
I have found that the two applications I have tested, gedit and firefox,
both crash when attempting to show the File->Save dialog. I run openbox
as my window manager instead of Gnome, which seems to be significant. I
have used the following scenarios to determine as best I can where the
crash is coming from.
Scenario: Log in through GDM into openbox WITHOUT running
gnome-settings-daemon, open gedit and attempt to save a file.
Result: File save dialog works, but looks ugly. It is not themed according to
what I configured in Gnome settings.
Scenario: Log in through GDM into Gnome, open gedit and attempt to save a file.
Result: File save dialog works and looks fine, themed according to my Gnome
settings.
Scenario: Log in through GDM into openbox with gnome-settings-daemon command in
my .xsession file, open gedit and attempt to save a file.
Result: gedit crashes with "Segmentation fault" as the only output to the
console.
This behavior is also happening when using firefox and trying to do a
Save Image As... on an image, which normally brings up the same dialog.
I apologize if this is mis-filed, but I'm not sure how to track down
where this should actually be directed.
