Well, the good news is that at least there seems to be progress in
zooming in on the bug :-)
You can mail me the database at Peter.Bienstman (at) UGent.be
(Note that previously when people sent me their database for these
Windows hangs, I could not reproduce it, though, so perhaps this is a
different issue.)
Anyway, thanks for all your heroic efforts in helping to track this down!

Quoting Chris <[email protected]>:
Went back to my important database, froze after about 10 cards. Freezes
the exact same way it does in windows. Can't say exactly when it is
though, because it is clearly sometimes when a card is revealed, or graded,
but other times I've noticed it will be showing a card, and I will click
anywhere on the window, or on the file menu, and it will realize it is
frozen (i.e., it will give the "not responding" message in windows, will go
grey in Linux ubuntu).

Okay, I made up a 6-card database (in the Linux copy). I cycled through
it many times using learn ahead of schedule. Didn't ever freeze. So I
tried a very old database that I made as a backup years ago (imported XML
from Mnemosyne 1), it had about 500 cards. Went through a couple hundred,
really quickly (not actually paying attention to card info), failing some
and passing some randomly. Didn't freeze. Then I tried another very old
one (couple years ago, 5000 + cards imported from XML). Got through a few
hundred from it, but it had over 5000 scheduled, so I couldn't get to newly
learned. But it never froze. So it would seem to be something to do with
some fault in the one database that I am currently using? Perhaps this is
for everybody who is having problems? The database I have been having the
problem with on all the computers is about 7000 cards (the only special
features on any of them are images). If it would help you diagnose the
problem, I will gladly send it to you. How do I privately send it?

Doesn't always freeze on the same card. Sometimes it will freeze on the
same card for a couple of tries, but this is when it's really acting up and
always freezing on the second card... but I think this must be a
coincidence, because then it will be able to get past it if I leave it for
a while. I was wondering, when I leave it alone for a while, is there a
period of time which will shuffle the database? Perhaps this is when it
can get through more cards. I really don't know. I will create fake
database and get back to you. I guess it must be something to do with my
large database though, given I've tried two Windows OS's and one LINUX!?
I'll get back to you in a few minutes.

Feel free to privately mail me your database if that's the case.
Does it also freeze when you create a fresh dummy database with a few
dummy cards?
