** Description changed: Binary package hint: gedit Trying to open a python script. It worked one time but crashes on any subsequent attempt. + + The crash happens *consistently , mainly* for files which are several lines of text and have been edited previously by the user profile. + The crash seems to occur when gedit is trying to place the cursor and change focus to the same location of the last edit by the user. + [If the same file is opened in a different user account, which has not edited the file, crash does not occur . Since the user has not edited the file and cursor is placed in the first line now] + + Workaround 1: + 1 - Open a file which has *not* been edited previously. [or an empty file] + 2 - now open the file which causes the crash.[the file opens in a new tab] no crashes will be noticed now. + + Workaround 2: + + 1 - Before closing the file you are editing , reposition the cursor in the first line and then close the file. + 2 - Now opening the file later will not cause the crash + ProblemType: Crash Architecture: i386 CrashCounter: 1 Date: Mon Jul 20 23:07:08 2009 DistroRelease: Ubuntu 9.10 ExecutablePath: /usr/bin/gedit NonfreeKernelModules: nvidia Package: gedit 2.27.2-1ubuntu1 ProcCmdline: gedit movemembers.py ProcEnviron: SHELL=/bin/bash PATH=(custom, user) LANG=en_US.UTF-8 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 2.6.31-3.19-generic SegvAnalysis: Segfault happened at: 0x8d4542 <IA__g_list_last+18>: mov 0x4(%eax),%edx PC (0x008d4542) ok source "0x4(%eax)" (0xaaaaaaae) not located in a known VMA region (needed readable region)! destination "%edx" ok SegvReason: reading unknown VMA Signal: 11 SourcePackage: gedit StacktraceTop: IA__g_list_last (list=0xaaaaaaaa) gdk_window_process_updates () ??
