8.10 Xfig

[dwanders]

Here's another pickle! Ii just finished upgrading to 8.10 (so that I could get my printing to work) and everything seemed to working fine (I was even pretty impressed buy the upgrade - very smooothh!).

But when I went to run Xfig (which I use to map all my PC's and the facility layout) - when I zoom out it closes. It runs fine, lets me open my files, even edit them but if I try to zoom out more than 9 times, everything just quietly closes.

Any assistance with this matter is greatly appreciated.

Start xfig from the terminal, it may just provide enough info when it closes abnormally.

Happens every time I open Xfig and zoom out 9 times. Has happened both here at home and at work (even if no fig is displayed - just open the zoom). Both PC's are 8.10 with dual cores & a gig ram.
