Description igor ivanov 2015-07-19 15:01:55 CEST
Description of problem:if you play with gnome-mines under kde environment (I didn't try under gnome), and you lose and the mines explode, it may happens that everything freeze: mouse no longer works, no return from classical key-combinations (Ctrl+Alt+delete, for example) and the only way to quit this situation is to press the reset button of your PC case, which is not an optimal way to reboot.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
see source RPM above

How reproducible:play gnome-mines under kde and lose


Steps to Reproduce:
1.open the application mines
2.choose 30x16 99 mines (personnal set up doesn't work anyway)
3.make the mines to explode


Reproducible: 

Steps to Reproduce:

Can you please try KMines, which is designed for use with KDE?
 
kmines-1:4.14.3-1.mga5

I doubt anyone will be motivated to get Gnome mines to work well for everyone in KDE (here it gnome mines works well in KDE, btw, but only tried on a 32bit system)

mines (mines, not kmines) works very well under KDE environment with mageia4 x86_64
with mageia5 x86_64, kmines works well under KDE

I guess this might be a feature from the GNOME project to undermine the KDE project ;)

Joke aside, gnome-mines should not freeze KDE, using kmines instead is but a workaround.

Hi Igor,

Thank you for having taken the needed time to report this issue!

We regret if this issue didn't get fixed in Mageia 5.

Mageia 5 has officially reached its End of Life on December 31st, 2017 https://blog.mageia.org/en/2017/11/07/mageia-5-eol-postponed/
It only continued to get important security updates since then, but non-security bugs have no chance of still getting fixed.

I assume this bug doesn't exist in Mageia 6 or later, because KDE (now Plasma5) is entirely different there.

Closing as OLD.

Please reopen this report and change its "Version:" at the top left to "6", if the same bug still exists in Mageia 6.

Status: NEW => RESOLVED
Resolution: (none) => OLD
