Description Joe Orton 2002-09-12 10:47:37 UTC

gnome-terminal crashed whilst I was composing a mail in pico (via mutt), I'll
try and reproduce the crash, but here is the backtrace from bug-buddy if that's
any use.

Backtrace was generated from '/usr/bin/gnome-terminal'

Comment 1 Joe Orton 2002-09-12 10:58:13 UTC

I thought this might be to do with the fact that I'd just hit the "Insert" key
and found it did Surprising Things, but I can't reproduce the crash.

gnome-terminal-2.0.1-5
vte-0.8.19-1

Comment 3 Marie 2003-02-26 03:02:04 UTC

I believe that this bug has been solved in the gnome source tree.  

See:   http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=94509

for details.

Incidentally, this can be reproduced fairly easily by ssh to a Solaris box:

sciences> uname -a
SunOS sciences 5.8 Generic_108528-12 sun4u sparc

Run emacs (in the TTY window) and resize the window.  It may take a few
different resized, but usually I can get to crash in anywhere from 1-5 resize
events.
