In fact any dialog created via the Global Main Menu when closed will hang Viking.
I believe this to be a fault of the Unity Desktop. I have raised the bug here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity-gtk-module/+bug/1258669 Running Viking under another Desktop such as LXDE (lubuntu-desktop), solves the issue as the program operates correctly. There are workarounds to avoid using the Global Menu, so from the command line run it like this: env UBUNTU_MENUPROXY= viking or amend the exec statement similiarly in the file /usr/share/applications/viking.desktop to read: Exec=env UBUNTU_MENUPROXY= viking %F The latter will fix running Viking via desktop icons. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1255275 Title: Adding any layer except Aggregate makes viking freeze To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/viking/+bug/1255275/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
