Double checking - none found. Nothing under /usr/local/lib, and /usr/lib/etheral/plugins is from the Debian package. Also tried renaming ~/.ethereal to make it create a fresh configuration (in case anything odd was defined there). > 2. Check your hardware, RAM etc. > apt-get install hwtools memtest86 memtest86+ This is the only app that is misbehaving, and this is my primary system (desktop environment, mail client, web browser, games, etc.). I would think, if it were a hardware issue, I would see problems with more than just one program. Even programs with the same library dependencies as ethereal work. Just to be sure, though, I booted into memtest86+, and let it run five full passes of the standard tests. No errors were found. If anyone's interested, the strace output (~ 285k) is available here: http://aaube.nipl.net/ethereal.strace Unless it shows something, I say just close the bug, and I'll take the issue to debian-user (which I now sorely regret not doing in the first place). -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
