3.Wait a few minutes

Actual Results:  
Gaim closes or crashes with no output from the terminal. The last lines are:

Expected Results:  
Stay running indefinately

With XFCE4 "terminal" app running, and firefox.  Running apps don't seem to
impact the issue.
Comment 1 Don Seiler (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2005-07-20 20:44:40 UTC 
What we need most is a gdb backtrace.  See http://gaim.sf.net/gdb.php for
instructions.

Do you use arts for sound, by the way?
Comment 2 Greg 2005-07-21 10:02:07 UTC 
I did have arts running, but have since removed it.  I'll try again with out 
arts. I'll get you the gdb output soon.  Thanks.
Comment 3 Greg 2005-07-22 05:42:13 UTC 
Don, 
I think it might have been an arts issue.  I have KDE installed, but I use 
XFCE4.  Does arts still run?  Anyway, I've since updated to KDE 3.4 and did not 
install arts, as well as the latest portage stable versions of XFCE4, gtk2, and 
xorg-x11.  Gaim stayed running for as long as I was logged in last night.  I 
think it might be solved!  I'm going to leave gaim going all night, and see if 
it makes it. Thanks.
Comment 4 Don Seiler (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2005-07-23 14:16:44 UTC 
Check gaim's sound preferences.  Basically the bug is in libao's interaction
with arts.

See http://trac.xiph.org/cgi-bin/trac.cgi/ticket/644

*** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 87348 ***
Comment 5 Greg 2005-07-23 19:50:32 UTC 
Don, 
I'm not seeing any more problems with gaim after disabling arts.  I stayed 
logged in and didn't crash at all while doing various tasks.  Thanks very much 
for your help.
