Additional questions from an upstream developer I contacted:
[11:50] <kbroulik> do you have automatic screen locking enabled? Yes I have automatic screen locking enabled.
[11:50] <kbroulik> but I dont understand why the one works and the other doesnt. [11:54] <kbroulik> when you Cancel the dialog and open it again it doesnt crash? No that was a first wrong impression. Cancel actually crashes the whole thing.
There is a particularity that makes that you can open the new session with the applet without crash. Now that works in this complicated way: Open the first session A. lock the session with the screen saver and open a second session B. Now wait until the automatic screen saver pop up. Now unlock B. You will now be able to open a new user session C with the applet. But in this new user session C, if you try the applet it will crash the very session C. Now comes the best: once the third session has crashed, you find yourself again at session two (B). Now if you try to open again with the applet the new user session C, B will now crash immediately. This is repeatable, always on this system. The session A will be still usable and will not have crashed. Hope that was understandable somehow. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
