Hi! Rox-Filer crashes on Debian Etch 4.0r1. This applies to the distributed version 2.5 and a self compiled 2.6.1. The filer crashes (not always) when I try to open a directory with a lot of windows dlls. It does not matter if I open the directory on a mounted partition or if I try to open a tarball via AVFS. This might be a mime problem. System details: Distribution: Debian Etch 4.0r1 (all updates included) ROX-Filer: 2.5/2.6.1 For the tests I disabled the Gtk-Theme and used Rox's mime-icons. GDB output (running 2.6.1) is attached to this mail. If you need further information, let me know. Regards Peter -- Peter Greff <pe...@ar...> |

You can try pulling a copy of the source from http://kerofin.demon.co.uk/~stephen/git/rox-filer or wait for rox-filer-smw.tgz to appear in http://rox.sourceforge.net/snapshots/ -- Stephen Watson http://www.kerofin.demon.co.uk/ If you read this on a mailing list, send any reply back to the list and not to me.

Thank you for your help! > I pulled a copy of the source from git and it works! The problem disappeared. No more "** (ROX-Filer:22891): WARNING **: MIME type '\u0002' does not contain a '/' character!"-error messages in .xsession-errors. Thanks a lot, Stephen! This was real "speed-debugging"! ;-) Keep on the good work! Regards Peter -- Peter Greff <pe...@ar...> |
