Title:
Gnome Control Center Crashes when attempting to open "Details" (Ubuntu
13.10)
Status in GNOME Control Center:
Incomplete
Status in “gnome-control-center” package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Status in “gnome-control-center” source package in Raring:
Fix Released
Bug description:
[Impact]
* Gnome control center will crash when Clicking on the Details tab.
* only affects the virtualbox glX driver
[Testcase]
- Load VirtualBox VM with 3D enabled.
- Open gnome-control-center and click 'details'
- This will crash gnome-control-center, 100% reproducible
[Regression Potential]
Very low, this patch adds a glXQueryVersion call, which forces the virtualbox
glX driver to correctly initialise before calling glXChooseFBConfig. This is
entirely redundant on any other glX drivers and unlikely to cause any
regressions.
=== Original Bug Report ===
On Ubuntu 13.10, when I search for "Details " in the dash, I see the mouse
cursor (meaning it's loading something). But then gnome-control-panel crashes
and I get "Ubuntu 13.10 has encountered an internal error".
This also happens when I go to System Settings from the launcher and
then to "Details".
NOTE: I'm running 13.10 in a virtual machine on Ubuntu 12.04.

----------------
1) Ubuntu version: Ubuntu 13.10 x64

3) Expectation: I expected that the Details section of the Control Panel
would open.
4) Reality: Nothing happened; not even a window opened. I only get an error
(mentioned above).
