# Known Bugs and Limitations

Gnomermind 0.7.8 & GnomerMind 0.7.9

  The name of the default theme is changed from 0.7.8 to 0.7.9; if you want to switch back, you possibly won't be able to start the game, because the game will search for the new theme name. If this happens, just delete the file `~/.gnome/gnomermind`, and it all will work fine.

  Also passing from 0.7.8 to 0.7.9 will give problems; this bug is really corrected only in 0.9.0... :(

Gnomermind 0.7.8 cheat

  There are many little bugs in `GnomerMind` 0.7.8; perhaps the most interesting one is a little trick that can be used to cheat in the game. Choose Game->End game ; look at the solution, then select Game->Restart game. You will be playing the very same game of wich you already know the solution!! :) This is fixed in 0.7.9.

GLib/GTK+ > 1.2.9 & GnomerMind < 0.7.0

  Version 1.2.9 of `GLib` and `GTK+` adopt a different install path; `Gnomermind` 0.7.0 and earlier versions don't check for it, and fail to compile. The bug is fixed in 0.7.1 and later.

IceWM < 1.0.6 & GnomerMind < 0.6.0

  Using version 1.0.6 of `IceWM` and version 0.6.0 of `GnomerMind` (and probably also earlier versions of both), if the user modifies a parameter of the game that would make the game restart (redrawing the board), the window manager will crash. It's a bug of `IceWM`, actually; a workaround is present from version 0.6.1 of `GnomerMind`, and the bug is definitively solved in later versions of `IceWM`.
