[Bug 501760] Re: Dock disappears, CPU usage goes to 100%

 

I've tested your theme and I don't have any problem with it :-/
And the output debug seems to be useless here :-/ (except if you see something wrong, Fab ;) )

Do you have something special? (2 screens, many modifications in your
xorg.conf, etc.?)

Can you explain with more details how to reproduce your bug? (Firefox
3.6 (also with the stable version of Firefox 3.5?), which actions? etc.)

Thanks for your help !

Status in Cairo-Dock : Core: Incomplete

Bug description:
Cairo Dock version 2.1.2-4
Ubuntu 9.10 32-bit
Using CD with OpenGL
Bug occurs on multiple systems: Laptop with NVidia 6600 graphics, Eee PC with Intel graphics 

I have auto-hide enabled.  Sometimes the dock disappears (refuses to un-hide), and CPU usage spikes to 100% causing a massive system slow-down and spike in CPU temperature, and I must kill cairo-dock.  I have not isolated what user actions cause this.  It seems to happen randomly, but it frequently occurs immediately after a dialog box appears while the dock is hiding, or is in the process of hiding (for example a message notification from Empathy).  This has happened to me on two different laptops with different graphics chips, so it can't be a driver problem.  

I will attempt to follow up with debug info if I can catch it.
