Screenshot of immediate pre-crash state of workspace switcher

This crash happens not infrequently for me.  When I log in, no workspace names are shown (as seen in attached screenshot), though when I hover the mouse over the workspace switcher, the tooltip does show the correct names.  In this state, I can always trigger a crash by right-clicking on the switcher and selecting Preferences.  I do remember editing my preferences during my last Gnome session before rebooting, so it might have something to do with how preferences are saved to disk. I have been seeing this problem since at least Fedora 11.  Gnome Panel automatically asks if I want to reload the crashed application, and after doing so, it works normally again, showing workspace names.

this problem is not easy to reproduce because i try it many times and i get this crash sometimes

Comment 22 Michel Bourget 2010-04-14 14:38:46 UTC
Despite it's low priority, it is a long-standing ( I had it with FC5 )
annoying bug. Is there _any_ plan to fix that ?

Comment 23 Theodore Lee 2010-04-19 07:41:52 UTC

Comment
-----
When I logged in, I noticed that the workspace switcher on my panel was a lot wider than usual (it still had just four workspaces as usual, but each workspace was stretched out considerably). I right-clicked it and selected 'Preferences' to try and figure out what had changed, and that caused both the window list and workspace switcher applets to crash. Reloading the applets seems to have restored normal function. I haven't figured out how to reproduce this bug.

Comment 24 Gary Case 2010-04-22 19:34:17 UTC

How to reproduce
-----
1. Right-click on the workspace switcher
2. Choose "Properties"
3. Crash occurs


Comment
-----
This has been happening for many releases. When you right-click on the workspace switcher and go to the Properties option, it crashes.

Comment 25 Akshay 2010-04-27 14:12:29 UTC

How to reproduce

1. Simply Right Click on Workspace and the crash occurs

This is 100% reproducible for me on 2 different x86_64 systems.  This crash only happens once per session, so to reproduce I must reboot (Step 1 above).


To others that are experiencing this problem sporadically - Please try with the steps listed above to see if you can consistently reproduce the crash.  If so, please comment here.

This crash happened a few minutes after doing "yum updates" in which session there was an update to glibc-2.12-2.i686 - I don't know if that was related or not. 

Anyway, as things looked funny on the Gnome panel (a number of icons disappeared) I rebooted the PC and afterwards clicked on the Workspace Switcher applet on the Gnome panel and that that caused the crash.

2. right-click in wnck-applet, choose preferences from popup menu
3. boom


Comment

Sometimes the wnck-applet will not respond to mouse-wheel scrolling to change desktops.  I've found that I can force a reload of the applet just by choosing the preferences menu when it is in this state.

I don't know exactly what happened.  I was trying to increase the number of workspaces.  The result was that the workspace switcher disappeared from the bottom panel and I got the error message.   However, I was able to reinstall the workspace switcher and then change the number of workspaces.

This problem existed ( for me) on F12, and at some point in time was fixed.
Now, after upgrading to F13, it is consistently repeating.
Everytime I login, the workspace switcher applet stop showing the workspaces names. When right clicking and choosing preferences, it crashes. 
On reload, the workspace names appears and everything works OK.

Halfline,  This bug was fixed in gnome-panel-2.30.0-4.fc13, but there are quite a few instances reported here against F12.  Can the fix be backported and applied  to F12?

I would like to see the fix backported to F12.

I've also had this bug occur on RHEL 6 beta 1.  Haven't tested beta 2.

Given that RHEL 6 is in large part based on F12, it would be a good idea to make the EL folks at aware of the bug fix.

The bug seems to occur more often when the Workspace Switcher applet is configured to have more than 1 row.  For example, 4 workspaces and 2 rows, giving a 2x2 layout.
