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' (no debugging symbols found)...[New Thread 8192 (LWP 2024)] 0x420ae169 in wait4 () from /lib/i686/libc.so.6 #0 0x420ae169 in wait4 () from /lib/i686/libc.so.6 #1 0x4212a2d0 in __DTOR_END__ () from /lib/i686/libc.so.6 #2 0x408ecc63 in waitpid () from /lib/i686/libpthread.so.0 #3 0x40236ff5 in libgnomeui_module_info_get () from /usr/lib/libgnomeui-2.so.0 #4 0x408ee47e in __pthread_sighandler () from /lib/i686/libpthread.so.0 #5 <signal handler called> #6 0x42028cc1 in kill () from /lib/i686/libc.so.6 #7 0x408eb07d in raise () from /lib/i686/libpthread.so.0 #8 0x4202a019 in abort () from /lib/i686/libc.so.6 #9 0x4093e476 in g_logv () from /usr/lib/libglib-2.0.so.0 #10 0x4093e4b4 in g_log () from /usr/lib/libglib-2.0.so.0 #11 0x40036a19 in vte_sequence_handler_cd () from /usr/lib/libvte.so.2 #12 0x4003c78d in vte_terminal_handle_sequence () from /usr/lib/libvte.so.2 #13 0x4003d58e in vte_terminal_process_incoming () from /usr/lib/libvte.so.2 #14 0x40938c83 in g_idle_dispatch () from /usr/lib/libglib-2.0.so.0 #15 0x40935f65 in g_main_dispatch () from /usr/lib/libglib-2.0.so.0 #16 0x40936f98 in g_main_context_dispatch () from /usr/lib/libglib-2.0.so.0 #17 0x409372ad in g_main_context_iterate () from /usr/lib/libglib-2.0.so.0 #18 0x40937a1f in g_main_loop_run () from /usr/lib/libglib-2.0.so.0 #19 0x4043939f in gtk_main () from /usr/lib/libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0 #20 0x08058256 in main () #21 0x420158d4 in __libc_start_main () from /lib/i686/libc.so.6 Thread 1 (Thread 8192 (LWP 2024)): #0 0x420ae169 in wait4 () from /lib/i686/libc.so.6 No symbol table info available. #1 0x4212a2d0 in __DTOR_END__ () from /lib/i686/libc.so.6 No symbol table info available. #2 0x408ecc63 in waitpid () from /lib/i686/libpthread.so.0 No symbol table info available. #3 0x40236ff5 in libgnomeui_module_info_get () from /usr/lib/libgnomeui-2.so.0 No symbol table info available. #4 0x408ee47e in __pthread_sighandler () from /lib/i686/libpthread.so.0 No symbol table info available. #5 <signal handler called> No symbol table info available. #6 0x42028cc1 in kill () from /lib/i686/libc.so.6 No symbol table info available. #7 0x408eb07d in raise () from /lib/i686/libpthread.so.0 No symbol table info available. #8 0x4202a019 in abort () from /lib/i686/libc.so.6 No symbol table info available. #9 0x4093e476 in g_logv () from /usr/lib/libglib-2.0.so.0 No symbol table info available. #10 0x4093e4b4 in g_log () from /usr/lib/libglib-2.0.so.0 No symbol table info available. #11 0x40036a19 in vte_sequence_handler_cd () from /usr/lib/libvte.so.2 No symbol table info available. #12 0x4003c78d in vte_terminal_handle_sequence () from /usr/lib/libvte.so.2 No symbol table info available. #13 0x4003d58e in vte_terminal_process_incoming () from /usr/lib/libvte.so.2 No symbol table info available. #14 0x40938c83 in g_idle_dispatch () from /usr/lib/libglib-2.0.so.0 No symbol table info available. #15 0x40935f65 in g_main_dispatch () from /usr/lib/libglib-2.0.so.0 No symbol table info available. #16 0x40936f98 in g_main_context_dispatch () from /usr/lib/libglib-2.0.so.0 No symbol table info available. #17 0x409372ad in g_main_context_iterate () from /usr/lib/libglib-2.0.so.0 No symbol table info available. #18 0x40937a1f in g_main_loop_run () from /usr/lib/libglib-2.0.so.0 No symbol table info available. #19 0x4043939f in gtk_main () from /usr/lib/libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0 No symbol table info available. #20 0x08058256 in main () No symbol table info available. #21 0x420158d4 in __libc_start_main () from /lib/i686/libc.so.6 No symbol table info available. #0 0x420ae169 in wait4 () from /lib/i686/libc.so.6
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

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.
