From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.6) Gecko/20040113 Description of problem: gnome-terminal will not start if I am using animated xcursor themes. I have the following xcursor themes currently setup in ~/.icons BlueGlass fade_to_blue MacOS & yellowdot BlueGlass, fade_to_blue, & yellowdot can be choosen in either .Xdefaults or .Xresources or I can create a link called default in the ~/.icons directory pointing to the cursor theme I want to use. I can logout and then log back in. The cursor is working at this point. MacOS doesn't seem to work for me not sure why but that isn't the issue. If I open gnome-terminal or multi-gnome-terminal they will not open. This only happens when a animated cursor is configured. However they both open when I have fade_to_blue configured. fade_to_blue doesn't seem to have a whole lot of files to it and doesn't really animated as much as it changes transparenty continually. I'm not sure why they don't load Note I'm using multi-gnome-terminal version: multi-gnome-terminal-1.6.2-fr1 from freshrpms. xawtv also exhibits this problem but I will create a seperate bug for it. No other program I have used has had this problem I was able to open mozilla-1.6 and XMule and the complete gnome-session loads fine. I'm not going to use any animated cursors until this works since this renders my system unusable to me as I often watch tv and use the mult-gnome-terminal. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): gnome-terminal-2.4.0.1-1 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. install a xcursor theme with animation such as BlueGlass or yellowdot 2. setup font in either .Xdefaults or .Xresources or link to in ~/.icons as default. 3. login to x and try to startup gnome-terminal or multi-gnome-terminal. 4. wait and become disapointed. =/ Actual Results: The application didn't start. Expected Results: For the application to start and display and allow me to use it along with xcursors of ANY CHOOSING. Additional info: Nothing really.
