shotwell: 0.9.3-0ubuntu0.1

Hi, and thank you for taking time to report this. We will try to reproduce and triage this as soon as possible, and most likely ticket it on our side. This sounds like it could be either an alternate case of, or related to, a known problem; please see http://trac.yorba.org/ticket/1502 for details.

i can reproduce this bug.i confirm it.i follow the same steps you said.it freezes the whole system and the system is normal when we restart the system and log off the system.

I can reproduce this both in 0.9.3 and in the current trunk. It occurs only if I press the left arrow *immediately* after initiating the slideshow. I think this is probably the same bug as http://trac.yorba.org/ticket/1502 as Clint suggested above.
