1. Run pidgin in debug mode with this command:
* pidgin --debug > pidgin-debug.txt
Wait for the crash and attach the file pidgin-debug, which is in your home directory. Feel free to mask sensitive information, if any.
2. After the crash, look at the bottom of /var/log/syslog and see if there is something that looks relevant to pidgin.
Okay, three more things to do:
1. Run pidgin in debug mode with this command:
* pidgin --debug > pidgin-debug.txt
Wait for the crash and attach the file pidgin-debug, which is in your home directory. Feel free to mask sensitive information, if any.
2. After the crash, look at the bottom of /var/log/syslog and see if there is something that looks relevant to pidgin.
3. Try once more with the backtrace, to make sure it is a good one. Follow the instructions under https:/ /wiki.ubuntu. com/DebuggingPr ogramCrash first, then do the backtrace with the instructions at https:/ /wiki.ubuntu. com/Backtrace.
Thanks again
