[Bug 1375819] Re: gnome-font-viewer freezes up itself or the X session

 

** Changed in: gnome-font-viewer (Ubuntu)
   Importance: Undecided => Critical

** Description changed:

- 4) What happened instead
- When I open gnome-font-viewer by clicking on font file (tried on TTF and PFB) it sometimes locks up. Then nothing can be done within the window, but the rest of X session works. However sometimes the whole X session freezes, only mouse cursor moves. It can be worked around by switching to tty1 and killall'ing gnome-font-viewer.
