Toggling display line numbers crashes gedit
Last modified: 2004-12-22 21:47:04 UTC
Description of the crash: Enabling and disabling the Display line numbers option crashes gedit. Steps to reproduce the crash: 1. Open gedit 2. Go to Edit -> Preferences -> Line Numbers 3. Check Display line numbers 4. Uncheck Display line numbers Expected Results: Display line numbers should be disabled How often does this happen? This has happened every time I have tried it - both with a file open and without. Additional Information: gedit version 2.4.0 with GNOME 2.4.0 running Gentoo Linux kernel 2.4.20-r7
I can't reproduce this here using the fedora core beta packages. Could you tell us what flags you compiled with? Using optimizations over -O2 is not recommended. Also, a backtrace of the crash would be nice to have. Run gedit in gdb and type 'bt' after it crashes.
