Description of problem: hwbrowser crashes on Asus A7N8X Deluxe motherboard Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 0.6-1 How reproducible: every time Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install A7N8X Deluxe motherboard 2. log in 3. /usr/bin/hwbrowser Actual results: Asks for root password, starts to display window, dies with a bunch of errors in the terminal. (DeviceList.py:12201): GnomeCanvas-CRITICAL **: file gnome-canvas-path-def.c: line 1142 (gnome_canvas_path_def_any_closed): assertion `path != NULL' failed is repeated a bunch of times - followed by Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/share/hwbrowser/DeviceList.py", line 203, in ? reread_device_type_list () File "/usr/share/hwbrowser/DeviceList.py", line 150, in reread_device_type_list list.set (iter, 0, hardware.get_category_string (key), 1, key) File "/usr/share/hwbrowser/DeviceList.py", line 91, in get_category_string return self.type_mapping[key] KeyError: 20 Expected results: It should either work or exit nicely if it is not capable of browsing my hardware. Additional info: This application worked fine on this same install of RH Linux on a Asus VIA motherboard with a Athlon 900. The cpu on that board died :( I built a new box with the A7N8X Deluxe board. In addition to changing the board, I added a slave hard drive to primary bus and a slave dvd drive to secondary IDE bus. Old config: VIA slot A Athlon board (ath 900 128mb PC 100) 2 PCI nics, Soundblaster Live, US Robotics PCI modem hda: RHLinux hdb: empty hdc: sony cdrw hdd: kenwood TrueX cdrom vid: VooDoo3 AGP New config: A7N8X Deluxe (ath xp 2700+ - 256mb PC3200) 2 onboard nics and onboard audio US Robotics PCI modem (same as above) hda: RHLinux (same as above) hdb: RHLinux (new drive - well, was my old RH 7.1 drive) hdc: sony cdrw (same as above) hdd: dvd drive (new- forget brand) vid: AOpen nVidia GF4 440SE -=- I'm running a custom kernel - http://homepage.mac.com/mpeters/A7N8X/ but this issues also happens when I boot into the stock RH kernel - so its not a kernel issue. I think its just the A7N8X board.
