Description Adrian Likins 2002-10-05 21:42:22 UTC
Description of Problem:
Finding lots of core files in my home directory from the
"circuit" xscreensaver


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
xscreensaver-4.05-6

How Reproducible:
Seems to happen alot. Never seen it happen (only happens
when the screensaver is running and I'm not paying attention)


Steps to Reproduce:
1. I have xscreensaver setup to do "random" and it just triggers it
once and a while.

Running it from the commandline seems to work okay, at least it
starts up and rungs for a while.



Additional Information:
This is a dell laptop with a ATI rage128 video card. the 
/usr/X11R6/lib/modules/dri/r128_dri.so is loaded

Hi,

This bug is quite old now.  Given the lack of activity on this report and the
likelihood that this bug has already been fixed, I am going to close it.  If you
encounter the problem discussed in this report with Fedora Core 3 or a recent
version of xscreensaver, feel free to reopen.

Thanks
