Comment 7 for bug 682972

Recently created a new Maverick 10.10 VNC based desktop and this crash started occurring. I also recently pulled a 2.4.0 12-23-2010 build from getdeb. Same issue, which makes me think I have some sort of UI issue unique to me.

I then tried the same Gnucash file (it is NFS mounted and available on more than one machine including the one where the bug occurs) on my regular desktop with a real GPU and it seemed to work fine.

To trigger the bug, I use the mouse to put the cursor into the "Transfer" column of any transaction. This makes the little button that is used to pull up a list of accounts appear. Then I click on the button.. instead of a list of accounts appearing, it crashes with the button depressed (the little button graphic changes and thats the the last thing that happens). This is how I created the debug backtrace linked below. Same behaviour in 2.2.9 or 2.4.0.

I have had no trouble importing my banking QFX and selecting accounts in the import dialogue, so thankfully I am able to sort of stay current .. I just can't make any changes that require a change to the transfer column, or create any new transaction (unless the bayesian engine selects the correct account for me automatically).

I have filed a bug downstream at Ubuntu, which includes a full backtrace, registers, etc with the debug symbols from the distribution packages.

I suspect an issue or missing dependency related to drawing the list of accounts on the screen from the transaction window that occurs on my VNC based desktop.
