Comment 1 Martin Nordholts 2009-03-01 07:16:37 UTC

Hi! What version of GLib and GTK+ are you using?

Comment 2 Sven Neumann 2009-03-01 11:06:21 UTC

Such crashes are almost always caused by buggy GTK+ theme engines. Please try a different theme and report back.

Comment 3 Tom London 2009-03-01 18:55:32 UTC

I'm running gtk2-2.15.4-7.fc11.x86_64 and 

glib2-devel-2.19.8-2.fc11.x86_64
glibc-debuginfo-2.9.90-8.1.x86_64
glibc-devel-2.9.90-8.1.x86_64
glibmm24-2.19.2-2.fc11.x86_64
glibc-common-2.9.90-8.1.x86_64
glibc-2.9.90-8.1.x86_64
glib2-debuginfo-2.19.8-2.fc11.x86_64
glib2-2.19.8-2.fc11.x86_64
glibc-headers-2.9.90-8.1.x86_64
glib-1.2.10-31.fc11.x86_64

Regarding theme: Changing theme from "Fedora" theme to "Clearlooks" appears to make this problem go away.

I haven't been able to reproduce this with Clearlooks.

If I change back to Fedora theme, I can reproduce this segfault pretty quickly.

Comment 4 Michael Natterer 2009-03-01 21:42:15 UTC

Clearly a bug in the Fedora theme then. Please open a bug in their
bug tracker.
