Comment 1 Elijah Newren 2003-05-14 03:38:53 UTC
This looks like the mysterious gtk+ crash that is showing up
everywhere [See specifically bug 105745 for more info].
                                                                     
          
A number of people are getting this, but the stack traces are
unfortunately useless and we don't know how to reproduce the problem.
Can you get a stacktrace with symbols for us?
                                                                     
          
[If you're using RedHat 9, you can do so with the following easy
method; otherwise this will require recompiling from source:
                                                                     
          
  Install
  http://people.redhat.com/otaylor/tmp/gtk2-debuginfo-2.2.1-4.i386.rpm
  and if the problem occurs again, submit the backtrace you get.
  Installing the debuginfo package will make the backtrace much more
  useful.]
                                                                     
          
I am adding myself to the cc and marking as needinfo for now.
Comment 2 Christian Thibodeau 2003-05-16 20:13:14 UTC
I have installed the gtk2-debuginfo RPM so I am ready if it does occur
again.
Comment 3 Alex Duggan 2003-07-02 12:48:48 UTC
If you have any more useful information about these crashes, please
post them in bug 105745.
