I think there's an obscure bug in recent versions of GTK+. I'll have to see if I can gather enough information by using --sync and *-dbg packages to file a useful bug report. When developing Media I found that I could make the crashes at least much rarer by changing the order in which the hierarchy of the applet's widgets are shown and placed inside each other etc, but I'm not sure I enirely cured it. -- TH * http://www.realh.co.uk ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Join us December 9, 2009 for the Red Hat Virtual Experience, a free event focused on virtualization and cloud computing.
