Hello, Philippe! Your problem doesn't seem related to this bug report. So I suggest you should file a new report to describe your problem! In the meantime I'm going to mark this report as "Invalid" because it lacks the information we need to investigate the problem, as described in the previous comments. Please reopen it if you can give us the missing information, and don't hesitate to submit bug reports in the future. To reopen the bug report you can click on the current status, under the Status column, and change the Status back to "New". Thanks again!
