bingo, this wierd crash with the dialog box occers only when a sysinfo plugin is loaded... xsys: http://www.mikeopolis.com/content.php?page=xsys Should we "resolve" this to something else? It could me a memory stuff up on the xsys (its in c or cpp) causing it to crash or it could be xchat having a bug in it regarding the plugin... in any case its wierd how it is affecting the dialog box. Works fine without loading the plugin
Yes, we should resolve this bug to invalid since it's not gentoo specific.
