Oz 3.5.3 - Opie Battery Applet Hangs The Z

[ankhcraft]

When holding down the stylus (long tap) on the battery applet to change to the percentage icon, the view does change but the entire desktop freezes and the entire Zaurus is unusable.

I was able to log in over the USB connection after this and restart Opie.  Logging in over the wireless link didn't work, the session hung after a few seconds, and further login attempts also hung.  The wireless link was pingable... until I removed the card and plugged in back in.  Then, no wireless connectivity at all, it seems.

This bug is duplicable:  it happens every time I try it.

Edit:  Removed this 2nd post, because I was completely wrong.  See my 3rd post for my eventual conclusion.

Okay, yet another update:

It seems to only happen when an application is displayed on the screen.  After I restarted Opie before, no application was displayed on the screen yet, because I had just restarted.

Run (assumedly)  any application, wait until the application window is fully displayed on the screen and then try switch back and forth between the percentage icon and the battery icon to elicit this bug.

In my first post, I didn't realize that the behaviour of the battery applet would be different when applications are or aren't displayed on the screen.

Sounds like a bug to me - submit it to the Opie bugtracker.

I can't find this bug in mantis. Any objections to me adding it? This freeze is very reproducible for me (config in sig). Button presses and screen taps do nothing. The screen doesn't even dim. REPLACE BATTERY reset does work. ssh stays functional:
