needless to say that I was a *nix user long before Linux even began to be known about... ;-) It's just the windows I became used to in the last time because it takes away less time for configuring stuff. But this is really OT now. ;-)

Yay! Gentoo! I use it too. (hmmm... never used the -q option, but I don't see a point as one can just several terminals at once)

ironic since the *nix gtk2 client (the new one) has issues with running under gtk 2.2, It uses a new function call it doesn't support. Which I discovered when forced to updat gtk/pango/gdk to something released since 2003.....

Was it compiled with GTK 2.3 :twisted:

I traced the GTK crashing bug under Windows, using GTK 2.6. It's something I still don't understand, client crashes on regular gtk_text_insert call. Searched with Google for hints, found none - all should be correct according to documentation I could find.

So either GTK has some broken thing somewhere, or something changed which the client doesn't do properly, or whatever....
