[Canale Grande]

Binary package hint: audacity

happens in Ubuntu Jaunty (beta, Description: Ubuntu 9.04 Release: 9.04)

kern.log shows this:

Restoring the previously saved .aup file shows large gaps -> corrupted.

Also affecting me in Ubuntu 8.10. Similar message in kern.log.

I had this with the 1.3.9 version of Audacity on Karmic... It's incredibly unstable!

My solution was to install 1.3.10 which doesn't crash every 2 minutes!
