Sorry I should have mentioned it is the client that crashes.


hopefully I get the debugger working right.. never used it before.


The traceback looks valid.

This looks like an error in gdk, gtk or xfree. Do you have changed
anything on gtk? Installed a broken theme? Made any changes to the
xfree font system?

        Raimar, how has no idea what caused this

You hit it on the head. It was a program called gdkxft an antialiased font scheme (when I installed it actually made XFree86 unusable and I had to remove it form my configuration, but I never uninstalled it.)

Removed it and the bug went away.
