Description Mads Kiilerich 2011-06-04 20:10:50 UTC 
Description of problem:
when F5 (slideshow) is pressed the screen goes black and there is no way to terminate the program or make anything happen. Killing it from another console (ctrl-alt-f2) makes X work again. This is seen with all extensions except slideshow disabled.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
gthumb-2.12.3-1.fc14.i686

That's most likely a duplicate of #701185. I assume you use a ATI graphic card?

As a workaround, you can start gthumb on the command line like this:
CLUTTER_VBLANK=none gthumb
