I have been trying to mess around with changing areas in all sorts of ways with a few different settings and I see no trouble at all. No valgrind complaints either. So I'll need a bit of help to figure this out :) Please send output from "eesh show". Is there anything suspicious in .xsession-errors? Are you sure that it is e16 that freezes/crashes and not the X server? If e16 crashes it should normally come up with the ugly grey screen of death. If it is e16 that crashes it would be useful with a gdb or valgrind log. /Kim ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Download BIRT iHub F-Type - The Free Enterprise-Grade BIRT Server from Actuate!
