Yes :-( Also noticed that: 1. under heavy disk I/O (mainly: dist-upgrade) pidgin goes almost totally unusable (no window refreshment for long seconds etc), but recovers if heavy disk I/O ends (note: other GUI applications are not affected it seems) 2. hard to trigger, but sometimes pidgin does the latter behaviour if I type a message or do something with it and got a message at the same time, sometimes you can wait some seconds to recover but somtimes only killing the process helps. Even if it recovers if it started once, it occures quite often from that point eg in every minute, quite unusable.
Also, my pidgin almost always crashes at exiting but I reported this bug somewhere else (it affects me for a year or even more, it called gaim). I guess I may have some user specific problem with pidgin, but don't know what, I have two machines with the very same issues so no installation specific problems at least ... -- pidgin often freezes for long seconds https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/197254 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
