Thanks for the bug report. Unfortunately, that stack trace is not very useful in determining the cause of the crash. Can you get us one with debugging symbols? Please see http://live.gnome.org/GettingTraces for more information on how to do so.

Could you also try to disable the autoaway plugin and test if it still crash?

As I wrote in the report, I have no plugins in use, but I'll try and see if I can produce the debug symbols. :)

Ohh sorry, i missed that.

If you can't, i'll build tonight a package with debug symbols.

Yeah that would be great, as I don't have much experience of compiling (just the ./configure, make, make install routine)

Try with this one: http://www.cerkinfo.be/~kujo/xchat-gnome_0.11-0ubuntu1_i386.deb

Install libgtk2.0-0-dbg and libsexy2-dbg could be a good idea to.

Strange, it seems to crash in the autoaway plugin.
Are you it is not loaded ?

Could you put your output of "gconftool-2 -g /apps/xchat/plugins/loaded"?

No plugins are selected in xchat-gnome preferences, though. Some, including auto-away, were selected when the first crash occurred. I then tried without the plugins. When it crashed again, with (seemingly) no plugins, I thought it wasn't the plugins.

I deleted the key using gconf-editor and it seems fine now. I'm going to test using the plugins again.

Having deleted the gconf key, I only enabled Auto Away plugin, and it crashed as reliably as before. =)

It seems he's not using gnome-screensaver.
Do you have any idea why?

Could you launch x-g in a term and paste the output?

aamukahvi (aamukahvi) wrote :

There was no output, I crashed x-g but no output on terminal. As for gnome-screensaver, I have no idea. ubuntu-desktop is installed as is gnome-screensaver.

I tried with the screensaver enabled and disabled. No effect.

I've emailed Guillaume a patch that fixes this issue. The patch also fixes a bug which caused autoaway to not work on some non-english systems.

This is the patch that has been mailed upstream. Attaching it here for the sake of completeness.

This patch also fixes two strings that were incorrectly marked for translation - Makes autoaway work on non-english systems...

Thanks for your patch Isak!

I rebuild a package with it : http://www.cerkinfo.be/~kujo/xchat-gnome_0.11-0ubuntu1_i386.deb
aamukahvi, could you test it to be sure than it fixes your crash?

That patched deb works for me. No more crashing on connect.

Nice!
We still don't know why it doesn't use gnome-screensaver but at least it doesn't crash anymore.

I will commit this patch upstream.
Sébastien, maybe it would be a good idea to integrate it into Dapper's package.

It does use screensaver, now that it doesn't crash immediately. And works great!

Here's the server window output:

[15:30]--- [NickServ] is away (Gone, for more info use WHOIS NickServ NickServ)
[15:30]-NickServ- NickServ does NOT exist on this net!
