Comment 8 for bug 1464933

  It's still doing the flash thing, but it only does it between 1/2 and 10 seconds, and then stops flashing and is usable again. I can deal with that, but yesterday it kept flashing and I had to manually kill and restart it for it to work, like 5 or 6 times within a few minutes. So I think the best description as to how it's working is to say "intermittently". For the most part, it works, but occasionally I have to stop and restart it because the flashing thing. If I waited a while it would come back to life on it's own, but when I need to get something out of the clipboard like I do so often, and don't want for the wait which is sometimes fast and other times slow, then I have to kill and restart it to get back functionality. I just copied this paragraph into the clipboard and opened the drop-down menu, it flashed for about 3 seconds and then returned to normal, so that ain't too bad. lol

  It's probably something to do with one of the many updated libraries in Ubuntu or something like that and Diodon don't get along with it. The cost of updates I suppose.....

  I do appreciate your time and help. Perhaps one day someone will come across this issue and discover the fix.

  Thanks Oliver
