Binary package hint: gnome-control-center

Up-to-date Hardy beta as of today, 4/10/08

gnome-display-properties; gnome control center 1:2.22.1-0ubuntu2

This crash happens before anything is displayed. I just get the apport screen while expecting the screen resolution panel to open. Uninstalling xgl and restarting gdm will allow it to run. It has been repeatable; I can't run gnome-display-properties while xgl is active. If I set a different resolution will not running xgl, it is forgotten when xgl is reinstalled and then used.

Due to the similarity in the assertion it prints I have to wonder if this is anything like bug 199960. If so, perhaps the kind of magic applied to gnome-setting-daemon that fixed that (for me anyway) might fix this?
