Description Antonio M. D'souza 2002-06-24 00:13:41 UTC

I was surfing & had 3 URLs open when I quit Galeon. 
Now when I start it up, it loads these 3 URLs into 3 tabs on startup, as
would be expected.
However, every time I shut it down, whether or not I create a new tab to
open more pages in, it crashes.
The URLs for the 3 saved tabs are here, followed by the stack trace:

Comment 1 jonner 2002-07-24 10:56:37 UTC

I am also running Galeon 1.2.5 on Gentoo. I have been experiencing
relatively frequent segfaults, but I wasn't able to narrow down the
circumstances or reproduce it. I just determined at least one sequence
of GUI interactions that invariably produces a segfault.

When I use the window manager to close a Galeon window which has more
than one tab, the confirm dialog pops up. As soon as I click "OK," a
gnome dialog pops up, indicating the segfault. Closing a window which
only has one tab does not seem to be a problem.

I suspect the poster of this report has experienced the same behavior,
though he describes a more limited set of circumstances.
