Description blyth 2002-10-17 01:34:12 UTC

resizing terminal window causes crash - in addition
having many terminals open at once causes crash, with
all terminals dying

Comment 1 John Fleck 2002-10-19 01:44:42 UTC

Can you get a stack trace?

Comment 2 rhardy 2002-10-19 06:54:46 UTC

Just had a gnome-terminal crash during a resize here. I'm also on
Redhat 8.0/Gnome 2. Please provide process for extracting stack trace.

Comment 3 Heath Harrelson 2002-10-25 22:58:05 UTC

The easiest way to ensure that stack traces are submitted with your
bug reports is to install bug-buddy.

After installing bug-buddy, get gnome-terminal to crash, then when the
error window comes up click "Submit bug report."

Rather than go all the way through sending the bug report, click "Show
Debugging Details" in the Bug Buddy window, then click "Save" to save
the stack trace.  Cancel out of Bug Buddy, paste the trace that you
saved into this bug report, and you're done.
