Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.

Reliably crashes for me. Display a file in "Files" or Pmanfm, then do gedit filename
The Display window disappears, a crash report may be generated, and the gedit filename never occurs.

leafpad filename works fine.

In previous releases, the gedit filename would open a new tab in the Display window. Instead, crash. Looking at the bug as a black box, opening the new tab is when the crash occurs.

Oh, I was running LXDE in comment #7. I can run either desktop for bug evaluations, just log on to one or the other. Last I checked that still worked. My bug with crash report is #1051976.
