10/8 build hangs at Tip of the Day on ubuntu 7.04

[teales]

My original topic seems to have died.  I removed wx, installed 2.8.4 from the suggested alternate site.  I also removed Codeblocks and installed from scratch from 10 August build.

It still starts to load, lets me choose my default compiler, and then gets as far as the Tip of the Day dialog, at which point it hangs.  I kill it, and in the console where I started it I see:

(codeblocks:10279): Gtk-CRITICAL **: gtk_window_realize_icon: assertion `info->icon_pixmap == NULL' failed

Any further suggestions please.

Thanks

Have you tried starting CB from the command line using the --safe-mode option? If not, you might try that and see if it loads. Then turn all the plugins off and turn them back on one by one to see if you find a culprit.

Hopefully someone will come up with some better input than mine.

Use the "Alternative wxWidgets repository" - it helped me.

Already know about the wiki info.  :wink:


He's already tried that and is still getting the error.

Running it in safe mode, I was able to find that it was actually hanging on the compiler plugin - the same plugin that gives you the default compiler prompt.  Why the compiler plugin hangs is still a mystery, but it doesn't bode well for an IDE.

Hi

I'm getting the same problem.  Clean install of Ubuntu 7.04, with the latest SVN ( 4425 ). It will start in safe mode no problem, but as soon as you enable the 'compiler' plugin it hangs. Other plugins start fine.

Edit:

Fixed using instructions from here - http://forums.codeblocks.org/index.php/topic,6770.0.html

Thanks.
