In case it's not obvious - the computer is not offline and the servers are not down. The applet can clearly in fact retrieve data from the servers, or it would not be able to calculate the information that appears in the hover tooltip. Running /usr/libexec/invest-applet -w -d yields: 2010-09-13 09:07:25.999345: Error while retrieving quotes data (url = http://finance.yahoo.com/d/quotes.csv?s=RHT&f=snc4l1d1t1c1ohgv&e=.csv): [Errno socket error] [Errno 110] Connection timed out so, it seems to indeed not get any data. then where does the tooltip data come from? it's not old data, it changes constantly and appears current and accurate. does the tool have two separate data retrieval methods for the click and the tooltip? that sounds odd. -- Fedora Bugzappers volunteer triage team https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers The upstream bug report is here: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=591723 and the fix for it is here: http://git.gnome.org/browse/gnome-applets/commit/?id=d4bea685996cfb4fe38aab3a5763b2517e83bdbf I can confirm that it fixes the problem (when applied to gnome-applets-2.32.0-1.fc14.x86_64). so they've finally got around to fixing the applet...just as I switched to GNOME Shell. le sigh =) -- Fedora Bugzappers volunteer triage team https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers Problem still not resolved for F14 and gnome-applets-2.32.0-2.fc14.x86_64 on my desktop I am having the same symptom described in this bug but, according to the debug info I collected, the bug I am seeing is the one described in the following upstream bug report: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=631418 The fix for this bug is here: http://git.gnome.org/browse/gnome-applets/commit/?id=d4bea685996cfb4fe38aab3a5763b2517e83bdbf It is available in the latest stable build of gnome-applets (2.32.1.2) which is newer than the version currently available in Fedora 14. gnome-applets-2.32.0-3.fc14 has been submitted as an update for Fedora 14. https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/gnome-applets-2.32.0-3.fc14 I've added the patch noted by Leonardo (thanks for the heads-up); please test the update and add karma. Thanks! -- Fedora Bugzappers volunteer triage team https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers gnome-applets-2.32.0-3.fc14 has been pushed to the Fedora 14 testing repository. If problems still persist, please make note of it in this bug report. If you want to test the update, you can install it with su -c 'yum --enablerepo=updates-testing update gnome-applets'. You can provide feedback for this update here: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/gnome-applets-2.32.0-3.fc14 Just tested the updated package and fix works for me. I was not the one to open this bug, but the fix solved the symptom I has having (which is the same as the one described in the bug). gnome-applets-2.32.0-3.fc14 has been pushed to the Fedora 14 stable repository. If problems still persist, please make note of it in this bug report. |
