View Full Version : [ubuntu] Wedging the windowing system with multimon.

I installed from synaptic 'multimon', the radio signal decoder.

Running it as a default Ubuntu user, when closing multimon's window, the windowing system goes bang and resets to the login screen.

I can just catch glimpse of the terminal saying 'fatal error' before the whole thing goes blammo back to login screen. I am wondering perhaps if there is a bug somewhere in the windowing system that multimon highlights when it is closed.

Posting it here as a user-mode program shouldn't bring down a session like this - what could be going on?
