blacktree-quicksilver - issue #331

quicksilver becomes unseponsive


Posted on Apr 13, 2010 by Quick Wombat

What steps will reproduce the problem? 1. activating QS (the QS window can be triggered to appear and disappear) 2. once i start to type, quicksilver and the window becomes completely unresponsive 3.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

expected output = seeing what i type, but QS freezes, no respons to whatever i type. Instead i see the module, when i hover over it with my mous, i see the 'spinning ball' activity monitor states QS is unresponsive.

I can actually access the quicksilver settings when i do NOT activate the actual window. Once triggered i experience the problems.

What version of the product (including Quicksilver version, AND the module version related to the buggy functionality if appropriate) are you using? On what operating system?

QS: ß57 (3840) MAC os X 10.6.3, build 10D573 MAcbook pro 13" 2.26 GHz, 2 GB 1067MHz DDR3

Please provide any additional information below, and please attach the corresponding crash log under ~/Library/Logs/CrashReporter if your problem ends this way.

the problem started happening pretty randomly, after using quicksilver for 6-8 months very happily, without any problems! Some time ago i installed some plugins. That did not appear to cause any problems. I kept using QS without problems.

I have uninstalled (completely!) and re-installed 3 times, no results.

I have the exact same problem with B58. Also crashes when entering the "triggers" panel in the preferences, possibly related?
