Re: Solaris theme selector crash

[Laszlo PETER <Laszlo Peter ireland sun com>]

Hi,

I was looking at these bug reports.
Most of them are indeed duplicates of the same bug, namely
"When selecting a theme on Solaris 2.8, the gnome control center
 crashed.", but not all of them. And specifically, the one
that you marked them to be a duplicate of is a different thing,
some weird color depth problem.

 - 23741 is for wm-properties-capplet
 - 32021 also seems to be a different bug

I don't know about these two.

As for the one that is reported most, here's a patch that we
submitted in February:
