Using Linux apps on FreeBSD teaches you to ignore this kind of messages. :-) It seems that ported Linux programs generate them all the time, with a varying degree of "actual impact". Just a short example (into which your error message would fit just fine): (gimp:3022): GLib-WARNING **: goption.c:2132: ignoring no-arg, optional-arg or filename flags (8) on option of type 0 (gimp:3022): Gimp-Display-CRITICAL **: render_image_tile_fault: assertion `tile[4] != NULL' failed end from FAM server connection (gimp:3022): Gtk-CRITICAL **: IA__gtk_icon_info_load_icon: assertion `icon_info != NULL' failed (gimp:3022): Gimp-Display-CRITICAL **: render_image_tile_fault: assertion `tile[4] != NULL' failed (gimp:3022): Gimp-Base-WARNING **: tile ref count balance: 20 However, program functionality (in this case: Gimp) doesn't seem to be affected. I don't know what else to say... ;-) -- Polytropon Magdeburg, Germany Happy FreeBSD user since 4.0 Andra moi ennepe, Mousa, ...
