#96 RKWard freezes the computer

[Anonymous]

When using RKWard, especially when the graphic device is open, the computer some times freeze and only the mouse moves. This happens when the R engine is idle. the memory usage is about 50% of 4GB. It happens on two computers working with Ubuntu 11.04 with different hardware. The freezing of the computer is related minimizing RKWard. The only way to get out is to restart the machine. ctl+alt+f1 does not help.

RKWard version 0.5.4
KDE 4.6.2
R 2.12.1

Report is about an outdated version of RKWard, and no reply to request for more info.

I'm changing the status of this report to "pending", meaning it will be closed in 14 days, automatically, if there is no further reply.

Hm, somehow "pending" tickets don't seem to close, automatically, any more.
