[Qgis-user] RE: random crashes during editing

[Pierre Chevalier Géologue]

Hello,

In case it may help: I also have had a lot of crashes of qgis also, 
recently.
At first, it seemed to happen when I was resizing the main window. I 
changed my windows manager (icewm on debian squeeze, switched to kde), 
it didn't help. In fact, it was happening quite regularly, after a few 
minutes without using qgis, even when I was not resizing the window, but 
when I was zooming or panning. I noticed that the autosave extension was 
always generating empty files instead of backups of the .qgs. So I got 
rid of this extension: and now, no more crashes (so far...). So maybe 
was it related to the autosave extension? I'm on a "report-rush" period, 
so it is not the very right time to play with this. Later on, I'll try 
this extension again.

It was strange, because qgis used to be extremely stable and robust, and 
all of a sudden, a few weeks ago, it seeemed very unstable, capricious. 
I almost felt like I was on a windows machine! Scary, isn't it?...

A+
Pierre
