Description of problem: Whenever I select 'manual' from the help menu, the application crashes. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): $ rpm -qa system-config-bind system-config-bind-4.0.1-2.fc6 How reproducible: Steps to Reproduce: 1. Using an X session, remotely connect (via ssh) to the server as root 2. Run 'system-config-bind' 3. Click 'help' then 'manual' 4. Watch system-config-bind crash and burn Actual results: system-config-bind crashes. From the command line: The program 'bindconf' received an X Window System error. This probably reflects a bug in the program. The error was 'BadIDChoice (invalid resource ID chosen for this connection)'. Expected results: I expected to see the help manual Additional info: See Bug Buddy's report (attached)

I tried to reproduce the error at the console on the server, but when I performed the steps to reproduce the problem, the manual just didn't show up -- the application did not crash.
