Running Ubuntu ahrdy with latest archive updates. When attempting to run onboard in any way, a segmentation fault occurs. However, whenever booting the live CD and using the on-screen keyboard accessibility profile, onboard loads properly. However, when you shut it down, and attempt to run it again, the segmentatino fault occurs.
I need to try on other machines, but it seems like a race condition to me. I haven't yet tracked down where the problem likely is just yet. |
Running Ubuntu hardy with latest archive updates. When attempting to run onboard in any way, a segmentation fault occurs. However, whenever booting the live CD and using the on-screen keyboard
accessibility profile, onboard loads properly. However, when you shut it down, and attempt to run it again, the segmentatino fault occurs.
TEST CASE:
1. Make sure the onboard package is installed.
2. Attempt to run onboard, either from GNOME's run dialog, or from a terminal.
3. Onboard should segfault.
4. Install the python-virtkey package from proposed with Chris' patch.
5. Attempt to run onboard again.
6. Onboard should load successfully.
Regression potential:
Since the package segfaults, except when being booted via the accessibility profile from the live CD, and since geometry information is not needed by python-virtkey, as well as onboard being the only package in the archive that depends on python-virtkey, the chance of a regression is next to nothing.
Course for Intrepid:
As soon as intrepid opens, I will upload a fixed virtkey package.
