[Bug 273031] Re: evolution crashes as soon as I start to type a message in email
I am having a similar problem: newly installed ubuntu 8.10 alpha amd64. As soon as I start typing in the body of a new message either the composer window and the main Evolution window go grey and freeze, requiring me to force quit, or (more often) the app crashes and vanishes. I can receive mail via evolution, but have to use a webmail service to send emails. I have sent the crash report in /var/crash via apport. -- evolution crashes as soon as I start to type a message in email https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/273031 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 273031] Re: evolution crashes as soon as I start to type a message in email
Hi I wiped the installation and did a fresh install, updated everything and thus far it would seem to be OK - I managed to send one mail to myself !! (grin). It would seem to have been fixed in one of the updates from today. thanks to the devs ! -- evolution crashes as soon as I start to type a message in email https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/273031 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 273031] Re: evolution crashes as soon as I start to type a message in email
Hello I have a problem - when Evolution freezes, necessitating a kill command there is no resulting crash file in /var/crash relating to this, nor does apport pick up the crash (yes I confirm that it is turned on, as I have used it to submit crash reports recently). I tried to get some info by starting the app from a terminal. I get initially: (evolution:6758): Gtk-WARNING **: GtkSpinButton: setting an adjustment with non-zero page size is deprecated which is duplicated several times and then comes: (evolution:6758): gtkhtml-editor-WARNING **: en-ZA: No such language so I assume there is a locale issue, which would explain the problem only occurring when I hit the space bar after the first word - I would assume it is trying to spell-check the word, using the en-ZA locale (South Africa), but doesn't recognise it and freezes in confusion. I am running Ubuntu 8.10 alpha 6 with all updates as of 10 pm 25 sept on a pentium 4 2.6 cpu with 768 megs RAM. Not sure if the above helps, but I do have to say that as it stands, evolution is not useable as it stands right now. hopefully the above might help a bit ? -- evolution crashes as soon as I start to type a message in email https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/273031 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. However, your crash report is either missing or challenging to deal with as a '.crash' file. Please follow these instructions to have apport report a new bug about your crash that can be dealt with by the automatic retracer. If you are running the Ubuntu Stable Release you might need to enable apport in /etc/default/apport and restart. If you are using Ubuntu with the Gnome desktop environment - launch nautilus and navigate to your /var/crash directory and double click on the crash report you wish to submit. If you are using Kubuntu or Xubuntu you can file the crash using /usr/share/apport/apport-qt --crash-file=/var/crash/_my_crash_report.crash in a terminal - where _my_crash_report.crash is the crash you would like to report. I'm closing this bug report since the process outlined above will automatically open a new bug report which can then dealt with more efficiently. Thanks in advance for your cooperation and understanding. ** Changed in: evolution (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided = Medium Assignee: (unassigned) = Ubuntu Desktop Bugs (desktop-bugs) Status: New = Invalid -- evolution crashes as soon as I start to type a message in email https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/273031 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
