I'm not able to reproduce when copying things from one simple impress document to another under GNOME :-( a) What's your environment, gnome or kde ? b) does it happen on *every* cut and paste from one impress to another, or randomly ? c) is there a sample document which when you select something in it and paste that into a new impress document you *always* get a crash, if so can you attach it here for reproduction of the problem a) KDE. b) Unfortunately, no. I'll attach two presentations. The users is basically copying images/slides from one to the other. Resizing images. Selecting and resizing text. You know, doing work :-). Fairly quickly (~10mins) of working it will crash, which is making it impossible to do her work. Created attachment 120471 [details]

it's probably the KDE klipper that breaks OOo Whose fault is that (OOo or klipper)? Is removing klipper from the KDE panel enough to deactivate it? That way we could test with it not running. Well if I'm right then its OOo fault that it crashes, but try removing klipper from the panel and see if there's *any* improvement. It might be the case that klipper is taking snapshots of selected items at occasions and under circumstances which a user wouldn't, and so triggered never tested parts of the cut and paste code. Well, looks like stopping klipper has fixed the issue for us, so that looks like to place to look. I'll let you know if we see any similar crashes in the future with it disabled. Well, one more crash, though it might be something different: Yes, I managed to crash ooffice with klipper disabled once here. I opened the ppt file and used the scroll bar to scan down to the last slide before it was done loading and clicked on it, and the program crashed. Seemed like I moved too fast for it or something... But it does look like it is more stable without klipper. http://www.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=51738. The good news is that the klipper problem is known, the bad news is that the klipper fix for OOo was already applied in the fedora OOo :-( I'll give the new updated upstream patch for this a go ::DrawRect crash was http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=25199 |
