Hello,

first, thanks for your bug report. I don't have this problems, so could you please post some details of your system, which distribution do you use, the version of Python and the wxPython version?

Thank you,

Fred

Took another look at this error, if I change wx.ID_ABOUT to another ID it works fine. So it is specifically ID_ABOUT on this program. Are these IDs part of wxPython?

Basically if I;
CHANGE
btnabout = wx.Button(pbuttons, id=wx.ID_ABOUT)
TO
btnabout = wx.Button(pbuttons, id=wx.ID_APPLY)
IT WORKS

Except after doing this, clicking that button gives an error :).

[Friedrich Weber (fredreichbier)]

I have no idea why this crashs. Maybe you have compiled GTK+ oder wxGTK on your own?
That values are just Stock IDs, which cause wxPython to display a yellow star on the 'About'-Button. You could also change this line to

btnabout = wx.Button(pbuttons)

Maybe I will remove the button in the gestikk-0.4 branch.

What error? :)

[kporter (kportertx-yahoo)]

The error is the same non descriptive segmentation fault (core dumped).
I tried just pbuttons, while that button can load now, clicking it gives the error now.
I tested the 0.4.1 and it works. Very strange.

Later today I'll try reinstalling anything having to do w/ python.

[Friedrich Weber (fredreichbier)]

Very strange. I don't get any errors with that button.
However, Gestikk 0.5 will (hopefully) be fully ported to GTK, so that problems won't exist anymore.
What about

Thanks for your work!

> Maybe you have compiled GTK+ oder wxGTK on your own?
No, this would not be the case.

[kporter (kportertx-yahoo)]

OK reinstalling wxPython fixed the issue. Everything seems to work now, really like the project hope to see more, thanks!

Thanks for the bug report!

Hi, i have the same problem here. When the program recognize a gesture (i tryed using different buttons for the gesture) gestikk exit with the error "segmentation fault".( "core dumped" doesn't appear)
If i set the debug mode, this is what appears:

DEBUG: Condition: True (then the usual error)

I'm on Ubuntu Hardy using gestikk 0.5.1, compiz enabled (same thing if disabled) no strange apps running in the background.

A few Info:

Linux 2.6.24-16-generic #1 SMP Thu Apr 10 13:23:42 UTC 2008 i686

Python 2.5.2

no Python-wxgtk2.8 installed

Bye

Hello,

sorry for the late answer, I am not subscribed to this bug :/

That's strange. gestikk normally doesn't produce segmentation faults, because it is written in Python. Does that happen for every gesture, for keypress and command actions?

Greetings,

Fred
