Description James Pole 2002-11-08 05:46:24 UTC 
Package: metacity
Severity: major
Version: 2.4.3
Synopsis: Random Metacity Crashes
Bugzilla-Product: metacity
Bugzilla-Component: general

Description:
Description of Problem:
Metacity crashes randomy

Steps to reproduce the problem:
n/a

Actual Results:
Metacity crashes once in a while for no apparent reason at all.

Expected Results:
It should function correctly at all time, with no exceptions.

How often does this happen?
There is no pattern, thus I can't really answer this question. :(
However, I've hard that simalar problems happens to other people so I
suppose it's not just specific to my computer.

Additional Information:
OS: FreeBSD 4.7-RELEASE

Could you please tell us what version of GNOME you are running?
Furthermore, could you please tell us about any other cases of this
you have heard about? Thank you.
