gnome 2.12 problems

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 




As stated in a previous message, I installed gnome 2.12.1 from scratch (as in Linux From Scratch) and am having problems with gnome-control-center and gnome-theme-manager not working. I have done some more investigating and it seems part of the problem is with gnome-settings-daemon not starting. As can be seen there is a null string being passed to the function in glib g_utf8_validate, which appears to be from a empty value in BG_PREFERENCES_PICTURE_FILENAME. I'm wondering if this is a bug?
