Bug Description
eog fails to open PNG file. After about 25 seconds, it gives up and says:
Failed to register: Timeout was reached
You can find the relevant image at:
Ubuntu 16.04.2 LTS, GNOME Image Viewer 3.18.2.
I expect it to display the image. Instead it fails with the above message.
Image Magicks "display" utility shows the image fine.
To post a comment you must log in.
I have this problem.
Ubuntu 18.04.3
4.15.0-58-generic kernel
X and TWM. Some gnome things are running...
eog image1.jpg takes 27 seconds to open a window.
Sometimes, I get 'Failed to register: Timeout was reached' message and eog is terminated.
This happens when I have TWM as the desktop. With gdm3, this does not seem to happen.
