[Opensim-users] Ubuntu and magic mini-trampolines (crash problem)

[John Hopkin]

I'm not using screen - it's just a simple script running in a terminal
window.  I reinstalled (now on r9325), reapplied the patch, and tried
again with all 11 regions (several dozen scripts).  It crashed and ran
gdb as you say.  It seems pretty easy to reproduce still.

I've uploaded a paste of the full error message onto the mantis; hope
this helps.
