Re: [GnomeMeeting-list] Problem :: Gnome Libraries + GM1.2.1

[Ashutosh Sharma <asharma samyak com>]

actually just a crash dialog appears and when I press OK then it gets
quit and gives the gdb prompt and then the application exits. At that
time just the gdb trace that I sent to you I get, where the meesage like
Xlib: unexpected Async Reply etc. Typing bt gives no stack that is
anyway obvious.

Also with my binary version where I haven't touched the OpenH323 or GM
gives error sometimes when it is connected to GM which is a compilled
version.

Well thanks for Eclipse suggestion. I'll definitely try out that.

Thanks and regards,
Ashutosh
