Description Bryan Hunt

I'm running 3.7M7, and twice now, I've had Eclipse take down my graphical session on Linux.  It appears the xsession is still running, but I end up back at the graphical login window.  I've been able to reproduce the problem this morning while using the debugger.  Investigation continues.

Can you give details about your OS, version, etc. I have been running 3.7 builds on Ubuntu 10.04 and 11.04 with no problems.

Bryan, the OS of this bug is set to Mac, are you running Linux inside a VM or...?

Odd, I really thought I had changed the OS to Linux, but maybe not ... I'm running RedHat but not sure what level (I don't control the OS on the machine).  Is there a command to find the exact RedHat release?

No response, closing this ticket. Please reopen it if the issue persists on GTK3.22 with 4.8.
