Description Sean Leach 2005-03-31 07:22:41 UTC

If I ssh to any FreeBSD machine (Linux seems to work fine), and then run screen, i.e.

'screen -S some_screen'

when the bash prompt of the new screen comes up (around that time) gnome-terminal crashes everytime.  It doesn't just crash the current window, it crashes all open terms.

Error message:
The Application "gnome-terminal" has quit unexpectedly.

You can inform the developers of what happened to help them fix it.  Or you can restart the application right now.


Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. ssh to remote freebsd machine
2. screen -S test
3. It crashes

Actual Results:  
gnome terminal crashes


Expected Results:  
Not crashed

gnome 2.8.2
gnome-terminal 2.8.2
gentoo 2004.4

Works fine.  What version of FreeBSD are you sshing to?
