I noticed this the other day (using Gnome 2 and Ubuntu Maverick), too. Pcbnew (not the whole computer) stops responding/redrawing the window after zooming around for a while. However, it seems that this doesn't happen when pcbnew is run directly from a console (thus I was unable to reproduce this while running pcbnew under gdb). I thought that this may have something to do with the debug build writing a lot of stuff into stdout filling a buffer or something and freezing pcbnew when there's no console open (?). I didn't test this theory, though. marco _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~kicad-developers Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~kicad-developers More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
