blender crashes when changing from object mode to edit mode

[Ruediger]

Binary package hint: blender

Blender crashes when changing from "object mode" to "edit mode" in that way, that there is no way to do anything on the system - no input is possible, no log-in in terminal mode and process killing. The system can only be re-started with the reset button.

Maybe a list of my hardware is helpful:

Laptop Dell Latitude C600
UBUNTU 8.10 (Intrepid Ibex)
Grafic Card ATI Technologies Inc Rage Mobility M3 AGP 2x (rev 02)
10GB HD
256MB RAM.

Blender Software: 2.46+dfsg-4 (intrepid)

Greetings
