blank-error.png shows Hob after launch. When you click the Close button in the error message, Hob closes and the terminal shows as in terminal.png

I am using Fedora 16 and running the latest master branch.

Belen, that probably is not a bug.

I also met that if I ran the old Hob and then update to the latest master.
That is because the old Hob remembered the old settings when you ran last time, and those settings are invalid for the new Hob.

So, please source to another build directory, or "rm .hob/ -rf" to remove the old "memory" and run Hob again, let me know if the error is still there.

Thanks.
