Bug Description
I am running Ubuntu 10.04 with fr0st 1.1. As I am also using ElectricSheep, I set it up as described in the comments on http://
When I start with a clean environment (rm -rf ~/.fr0st ~/fr0st-*), start fr0st (./fr0st.py) and press ctrl+p, the preview window pops up and rendering starts. With a chance of 2:3, fr0st exists with a segmentation fault the moment the rendering progress bar reaches 100%.
As this probably doesn't help anybody fixing the bug, could you please tell me what further information I can provide? I am new to debugging on Linux and don't know where to start.
Ok, do you get an error message of any kind, or does fr0st just crash? if it crashes, try running it from a terminal and see if it writes anything to stderr. Post any output you get here.
Other than this error, is fr0st rendering properly? do the thumbnails of each flame show up? can you render flames to disk? Did you do anything in fr0st before pressing ctrl-p?
