This works on i586.
This is either an installation problem (I don't think that the error message in the initial report is complete - There should be an ImportError or an AttributeError before) or a 64-Bit bug, e.g. http://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0353
The error messages are the only things output, even with the debuginfo package installed. But these happen before there is a problem. As soon as I click open, everything hangs, no error messages, no nothing, which is the same thing that happens if you try to run nautilus as root, which is why I thought it might be related to bug 220511. I am attaching an strace where I start gedit, and then type Ctrl-O to open.
This is not related to bug 220511.

I get the same hang on my i386 box via steps – su, gedit, File-->Open. I do not get any errors or warnings at all (not even the ones in the initial description), it looks like a clean run and then on the File-->Open click, it hangs. However if I run “su -” instead of “su” the File-->Open click works but I get this output to the terminal - (gedit:17866): libgnomevfs-WARNING **: Failed to open session DBUS connection: Failed to execute dbus-launch to autolaunch D-Bus session Volume monitoring will not work. arguments to dbus_connection_send_with_reply_and_block() were incorrect, assertion "connection != NULL" failed in file dbus-connection.c line 3168. This is normally a bug in some application using the D-Bus library. arguments to dbus_connection_send_with_reply_and_block() were incorrect, assertion "connection != NULL" failed in file dbus-connection.c line 3168. This is normally a bug in some application using the D-Bus library. This is not a gedit specific problem as I get the exact same hang when I try to run my customized alacarte as root via “su”. It hangs loading my customized glade file. If I run as “su -” I get the same libgnomevfs warning and it works. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.
