Description

I can reproduce the problem. It looks like that there is an issue regarding the usage of the different X11 visuals. As a workaround, you can start banshee like this for now: XLIB_SKIP_ARGB_VISUALS=1 banshee-1 Thanks Christian, the workaround works for me! Let me know if there are any updates you would like me to test, I'm no programmer but I'd be happy to do what I can to help squash this bug. I have added my findings to the upstream bug report: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=641515 it is still unclear whether the issue should be fixed in webkitgtk or in banshee. Another workaround is to disable all extensions which use internally webkitgtk like Wikipedia or Amazon.

Thanks for the update. Your second workaround is even better for me. *** Bug 682008 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** *** Bug 692845 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** This message is a notice that Fedora 14 is now at end of life. Fedora has stopped maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 14. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At this time, all open bugs with a Fedora 'version' of '14' have been closed as WONTFIX. (Please note: Our normal process is to give advanced warning of this occurring, but we forgot to do that. A thousand apologies.) Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, feel free to reopen this bug and simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were unable to fix it before Fedora 14 reached end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged to click on "Clone This Bug" (top right of this page) and open it against that version of Fedora. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping |
