[app_server] crash on cat /dev/random in terminal

[diver]

app_server (i think) could crash if you type in Terminal /dev/random, while it print lots of thing try to play with selection. After several seconds screen goes white with only 1 string, screenshot will follow. This could be continue of #80 Tested with r17585 under vmware.

I cannot reproduce this (r17579). Can you provide more info (like what fonts are you using)? Also, gdb is now working again, so maybe you can attach a back trace?

I use default fonts without any changes to terminal settings.

Also if you open Spy memory usage menu in process controller you could see that while cat /dev/random app_server will eat memory and it doesn't frees when you close terminal window. Mem leak?

Hmm, cat /dev/random doesn't work anymore, should i open another bug for this?

Please look at bug #1366.

Ok, now it jus quits Terminal, but leaves it in team menu.

This was obviously fixed in the meantime.
