As far as I can remember, only totem has been giving me an error in a widget that's way too small (considering the length of the error message). Again: the bug isn't the error message, but how the message is displayed. Your questions seem (to me) to aim more at finding out why the error message is there. I probably killed dbus or something equally nasty. It doesn't happen often, but it happened at least once. -- Totem error dialog: size makes errmsg unreadable https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/334844 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
