Description Mark Bokil 2006-09-27 00:22:50 CEST
User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.8.0.7) Gecko/20060910 SeaMonkey/1.0.5
Build Identifier: 

Thunar crashes if I move or "Go" back and forth through several directories quickly using the Alt + Left Arrow, Alt + Right Arrow keys. 

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open a directory several levels down
2. Press Alt + Left Arrow several times
3. Press Alt + Right Arrow several times to return to the starting directory

Actual Results:  
Thunar crashes and must be restarted to continue.

Expected Results:  
Thunar should switch directory views.

My directories had an assortment of small PNG files and subdirectories. At first I thought it was an occasional problem but now I can duplicate the crash each time by moving through directories too quickly using the Arrow keys.

Please attach a backtrace of the crash (see http://gaim.sourceforge.net/gdb.php for details in case you don't know what a backtrace is).

Comment 3 Benedikt Meurer editbugs 2006-10-01 13:48:47 CEST
Indeed, with the detailed view, it is possible to make it crash. It seems to be a bug in GtkTreeView (esp. since it works fine with ExoIconView) where GtkTreeView doesn't respond properly to get_visible_range() while loading the model. Please file a bug report to GTK+.
Comment 4 Benedikt Meurer editbugs 2006-10-28 09:06:01 CEST
Resolving to INVALID, seems to be a bug in GTK+.
