Sry Robert but i need to reopen, as it at least also happens with 2.32.0-0ubuntu4 backported to lucid, though the reason is different.
I tested it on 300 DPI Text profile. Saving 43 pages worked. But scanning further until about the double amount of pages saving crashes the app: GLib-ERROR **: /build/buildd/glib2.0-2.24.1/glib/gmem.c:137: failed to allocate 26779794 bytes aborting... Aborted While saving it already produced a 25,4 MB PDF that get corrupted on crash. Maybe this is due to too low memory. I did it on a machine with 1 GB RAM, before starting Simple Scan memory usage was 290 MB and did not run something else during scanning. This should be revalidated on maverick. To reproduce: 1. Put a page on the scanner and leave it there the whole time. 2. Run "simple-scan -d > ~/simple-scan.log" in a terminal. 3. Use Tab to focus the "Scan" button. 4. Press "Return" multiple times (say about 50 times or more). 5. Do something else until you got a lot of pages scanned. 6. Try to save. ** Attachment added: "simple-scan.log" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/simple-scan/+bug/599643/+attachment/1712958/+files/simple-scan.log ** Changed in: simple-scan (Ubuntu) Status: Fix Released => Confirmed -- simple-scan fails to save a large scanned document https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/599643 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
