Bug Description

Binary package hint: gdesklets

gDesklets gets into an infinite loop whenever I try to change the font on the MultiTail gDesklet's configuration page. This happens whether or not it is currently tailing any files.

Dapper
gDesklets version 0.35.3
Python 2.4.3

I am experiencing this bug just by running the multitail gdesklet. At first, things seem okay, but performance degrades until the whole thing stops responding. top reports high (=99+%) CPU use.

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. You reported this bug a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering is this still an issue for you? Can you try with latest Ubuntu release? Thanks in advance.

To be honest I've no idea. I'm using just Ubuntu Server at the minute. Perhaps one of the other subscribers could confirm it.
