From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 5.5; Windows NT 4.0) Description of problem: After running "xaos" from a shell windows and zooming into the fractal structure by holding the left mouse button down, "xaos" core dumps inadvertently and leaves the unprepared user with the following content of its shell window: <1 localhost.localdomain-user /home/user> xaos xaos: zoomd.c:362: fill2_32: Assertion `n > 0' failed. Abort (core dumped) How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Start "xaos" from the shell. 2. Zoom in by holding the left mouse button down. Actual Results: "xaos" crashes after less than 3 sec. returning the above message. Expected Results: Zoom smoothly into the fractal structure. Additional info: Red Hat Linux 7.1 with all available updates and XFS 1.0 on a Pentium Pro 200MHz/512kB, 256MB of main memory and an 8MB Matrox Millennium II PCI card. The problem occurs for both of the XFree86* and the XF86_SVGA* X servers. I am pretty sure that this problem arose with the release of Red Hat Linux 7.0, whereas it was absent for Red Hat Linux 6.2. Since the current version of "xaos" hasn't changed for quite a while this problem -may- be related within some internal problem of Red Hat Linux 7.x.
I couldn't reproduce this, but built a new release of XaoS anyway. It should be available in the rawhide directorys soon. Please reopen the bugreport if the new XaoS package still doesn't work.
