Title: pidgin hogs all system memory Status in “pidgin” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Binary package hint: pidgin Basically the bug is that pidgin goes mad and takes all available memory on my pc. This has happened a couple of times now. First time it happened I had no clue what had happened, my system simply stalled and I had to do a hard reboot. Second time, which was today, I noticed that there appeared message in dmesg, saying that pidgin has invoked oom-killer. To be honest I don't know if this bug is caused because of pidgin, but that is my guess. I also don't know how to debug this, so here is some random info. Hopefully this helps.. 2.6.24-17-generic pidgin 1:2.4.1-1ubuntu2 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pidgin/+bug/226692/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
