Can you get an exact copy of the text which > recommended you use it? Afaik the error message came from the X server, so yes, not a pgadmin3 parameter. It said sth. like: When an X application crashes, the error message is asynchron, and therefore usually not shows the real cause of the problem. When you want to run the application from within gdb, then use --sync, to get the right backtrace. The --sync is I think automatically added to each X application, from the X server, or window manager, whoever there is responsible.
When I get the error again, then I cut 'n past the output in here, I got this only once. Sebastian -- Sent via pgadmin-support mailing list (pgadmin-support@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgadmin-support
