2008-04-30 11:37:23 alzibub description To reproduce: * create a desktop launcher called test with command /bin/true * right click on the launcher and choose "properties" * select the "launcher" tab After about a second the properties window should then disappear. The launcher still works, and a workaround is to edit ~/Desktop/test.desktop directly using any text editor. More details (from my shell): alexz@galois:~/Desktop$ ls -l test.desktop -rw-r--r-- 1 alexz xendev 192 2008-04-30 12:24 test.desktop alexz@galois:~/Desktop$ cat test.desktop [Desktop Entry] Version=1.0 Encoding=UTF-8 Name=test Type=Application Terminal=false Name[en_GB]=test Exec=/bin/true Comment[en_GB]=do nothing much Comment=do nothing much GenericName[en_GB]= alexz@galois:~/Desktop$ To reproduce: * create a desktop launcher called test with command /bin/true * right click on the launcher and choose "properties" * select the "launcher" tab After about a second the properties window should then disappear.

Hi, This bug was closed as invalid because no GDB stack trace had been provided for the crash; but there is no crash per se, so a stack trace is not really appropriate. Further investigation reveals that everything works fine with user-space NFS but not with the kernel-based NFS server, which suggests it's a locking issue of some kind (as unfs3 does not support locking). Please let me know if there's anything you need which we can actually provide. John Pearson.
