Arian Sanusi twisted the bytes to say:

 Arian> dmesg:
 Arian> [36032.805679] traps: xournal[9685] trap int3 ip:7f9acdba6e8d 
sp:7fff18cf51b0 error:0

 Arian> xsession-errors:
 Arian> (xournal:9685): GLib-ERROR **: 
/tmp/buildd/glib2.0-2.36.4/./glib/gmem.c:165: failed to allocate 3667587280 
bytes

This is a very strange allocation: 3,667,587,280 (more than 3
Gigs). I suspect  that is why the computer was trashing (not the other
way around: that the trashing created the failure).

Xournal should not try to allocate such massive amount of memory unless
you tried to paste something this massive in.

do you recall what you were doing right before the crash? were you
annotating a PDF or just doing annotations on a non-pdf background
xournal?

thanks!


 Arian> this is xournal 0.4.7 from debian jessie on amd64.

 Arian> I don't think I can reproduce this bug. I use xournal exactly like
 Arian> this for several years for most note-taking for my studies, and I

 Arian> If there is something else I can provide on this please let me know.
