Yes, it happens all the time. I just tried with plain gracket, and it displays an error that might be more informative (this, again, happens when i try to resize the main window): > ./gracket make-bytes: out of memory making byte string of length 17169122912 === context === /home/jao/src/scheme/racket/collects/racket/draw/private/bitmap.rkt:66:2 /home/jao/src/scheme/racket/collects/racket/private/class-internal.rkt:3596:0: continue-make-super /home/jao/src/scheme/racket/collects/mred/private/wx/gtk/dc.rkt:27:2 /home/jao/src/scheme/racket/collects/racket/private/class-internal.rkt:3546:0: continue-make-object /home/jao/src/scheme/racket/collects/racket/private/class-internal.rkt:3468:2: make-object /home/jao/src/scheme/racket/collects/mred/private/wx/common/backing-dc.rkt:106:4: get-cr method in backing-dc% /home/jao/src/scheme/racket/collects/racket/draw/private/dc.rkt:623:4: set-clipping-rect method in dc% /home/jao/src/scheme/racket/collects/mred/private/wxme/text.rkt:4933:2: refresh method in text% /home/jao/src/scheme/racket/collects/mred/private/wxme/editor-canvas.rkt:586:2: redraw method in editor-canvas% /home/jao/src/scheme/racket/collects/mred/private/wxme/text.rkt:2503:2: set-max-width method in text% /home/jao/src/scheme/racket/collects/racket/private/more-scheme.rkt:149:2: call-with-break-parameterization /home/jao/src/scheme/racket/collects/racket/private/more-scheme.rkt:265:2: call-with-exception-handler /home/jao/src/scheme/racket/collects/racket/private/more-scheme.rkt:149:2: call-with-break-parameterization /home/jao/src/scheme/racket/collects/racket/private/more-scheme.rkt:265:2: call-with-exception-handler /home/jao/src/scheme/racket/collects/mred/private/wx/common/queue.rkt:359:7 /home/jao/src/scheme/racket/collects/mred/private/wx/common/queue.rkt:396:26 make-bytes: out of memory making byte string of length 17169122912 === context === /home/jao/src/scheme/racket/collects/racket/draw/private/bitmap.rkt:66:2 /home/jao/src/scheme/racket/collects/racket/private/class-internal.rkt:3596:0: continue-make-super /home/jao/src/scheme/racket/collects/mred/private/wx/gtk/dc.rkt:27:2 /home/jao/src/scheme/racket/collects/racket/private/class-internal.rkt:3546:0: continue-make-object /home/jao/src/scheme/racket/collects/racket/private/class-internal.rkt:3468:2: make-object /home/jao/src/scheme/racket/collects/mred/private/wx/common/backing-dc.rkt:106:4: get-cr method in backing-dc% /home/jao/src/scheme/racket/collects/mred/private/wx/common/canvas-mixin.rkt:137:13 /home/jao/src/scheme/racket/collects/mred/private/wx/common/queue.rkt:359:7 /home/jao/src/scheme/racket/collects/mred/private/wx/common/queue.rkt:396:26 on-size in window<%>: expected argument of type <exact integer in [0, 10000]>; given 65535 === context === /home/jao/src/scheme/racket/collects/mred/private/mrwindow.rkt:144:17: on-size method in ...private/mrwindow.rkt:127:4 /home/jao/src/scheme/racket/collects/racket/private/more-scheme.rkt:149:2: call-with-break-parameterization /home/jao/src/scheme/racket/collects/racket/private/more-scheme.rkt:265:2: call-with-exception-handler /home/jao/src/scheme/racket/collects/mred/private/wx/common/queue.rkt:359:7 /home/jao/src/scheme/racket/collects/mred/private/wx/common/queue.rkt:396:26 > Instead of `--sync', you could provide the `-synchronous' option (i.e, > the old X-style flag, which GRacket supports for compatibility with the > old version and translates to `--sync' for Gtk). Combining that flag > with gdb, you might be able to get some information. I'll try that, thanks. I will try also with another window manager: this is using sawfish, and could be its fault. jao _________________________________________________ For list-related administrative tasks: http://lists.racket-lang.org/listinfo/dev
