I posted this on the sourceforge bug tracker but that place seems a little dead, and I have no interest currently in joining the kicad dev group since I cant contribute so hopefully posting the bug here might get it noticed
Relevant information: Radeon mobile x300 video card Kernel 2.6.31 Xorg 1.7.1.902 (confirmed with other 1.7.1.x xorgs as well) Kicad 20090216-final (also confirmed with latest svn build) Description: In PCBNEW, upon zooming in to zoom 50 or higher. Xorg crashes reporting a segmentation fault. (PCBnew goes with it as well, obviously) This only happens when there is an graphical Arc on the drawing layer OR edges layer of the pcboard. Otherwise everything works as usual. This only started happening on update from Xorg 1.6.9 I'm tempted to think its an xorg issue since it only started after an update. But considering how many bugs are reported on xorg, I wanted to report it here in order to get some insight on the issue and to have a more specific issue to report to the xorg devels (like segfault on this or that system call) rather than just "crashes on kicad zoom in". Potentially something changed in the xorg api from 1.6 to 1.7 so it might be some kicad library misbehaving. But I know next to nothing about X so I cant confirm. I'm running arch, and most of these packages havent trickled down to more stable distro's so I havent confirmed if it happens on other distro's/hardware.
