Comment 1 Jeremias Nunez 2011-10-21 02:36:32 UTC
just confirmed that the same thing happens when using the gnome-shell-extension-icon-manager extension and dconf-editor to remove the a11y icon

Hi, 

Can you update this extension from testing?

# yum update --enablerepo=updates-testing gnome-shell-extension-remove-accessibility-icon

https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2011-15663

Comment 3 Jeremias Nunez 2011-11-13 21:54:45 UTC
just updated all my extensions from the updates-testing repo. everything works like a charm. thanks a million!

Comment 4 Jeremias Nunez 2011-11-13 22:30:18 UTC
got a little ahead of myself i think. just rebooted and shell crashed after login. installed extensions are: alternative-status-menu, places-menu, user-theme, remove-a11y-icon and windowsNavigator.

they are all from updates-testing repo except from remove a11y icon, which is from updates repo.

disabling alternative-status-menu fixes the crash.

Hi! This is not a problem with gnome-shell-extension-remove-accesibility-icon.

Here is a workaround: set a profile picture. Yes, it's strange, but works fine here =]
