GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 320844
Crash when viewing pdf
Last modified: 2005-11-07 23:34:18 UTC
Distribution: Fedora Core release 4 (Stentz) Package: evince Severity: major Version: GNOME2.10.0 0.4.x Gnome-Distributor: Red Hat, Inc Synopsis: Crash when viewing pdf Bugzilla-Product: evince Bugzilla-Component: general Bugzilla-Version: 0.4.x BugBuddy-GnomeVersion: 2.0 (2.10.0) Description: Description of the crash: Sluggish response followed by crash. Steps to reproduce the crash: 1. Maximized window size so that I can read the font size. 2. Scrolled and highlighted sections of text repeatedly - basically the mouse version of doodling. 3. Display starts to have trouble refreshing the screen and then poof! Expected Results: Shouldn't crash... How often does this happen? It is repeatable. Additional Information: 1. When dragging the mouse across text, it didn't highlight contiguous words, only certain characters. This suggests some strange ordering of characters within the PDF. 2. The PDF file was produced from a MS Word document. Debugging Information: Backtrace was generated from '/usr/bin/evince' (no debugging symbols found) Using host libthread_db library "/lib/libthread_db.so.1". ------- Bug moved to this database by unknown@gnome.bugs 2005-11-07 02:06 UTC ------- The original reporter of this bug does not have an account here.

Thanks for reporting, it's most probably a duplicate. If you have different backtrace feel free to reoped this bug, otherwise, let's discuss problem in one place. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 315552 ***
