Public bug reported:
I use a AMD64 system (Targa). Until recently no problems.
But since about a week OpenOffice Writer and Gedit crash when I try to open a
file after starting the application. When I open a file by doubleclicking it,
OpenOffice and Gedit start normally and I can change and save the file. But
trying to opening another file causes the application to crash again.
A clean install of Ubuntu 7.10 (from the Linux Magazine #87 DVD) solves the
problem, until I let the system install the (about 165?) updates.
After that the problem reappears. So I suppose there is something wrong in an
update. I have no problem with the Gimp, but writing this I notice that the
same happens with Totem media player, Sound juicer cd ripper doesn't start at
all, F-spot doesn't seem to give any problems.
I attach a Valgrind log from last thursday while trying to open a file with
gedit.
By the way, I have no trouble on my Intel Centrino Duo laptop (Compaq Presario
V6000), so I think it has something to do with the AMD processor.
