I can't reproduce it here, could you perhaps get a gdb log? please read http://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingProgramCrash ; to know how to get one, remember to install the gnome-control-center dbgsym packages first though, thanks a lot.

Hi

I can't reproduce it either now, I suggest closing the bug.

Cheers
