Bug Description

Binary package hint: tomboy

I was working with tomboy and just hang. I stop the process and when I try to started again, just pull the CPU to the top, 100%. I rebooted a few times and problem continues. I saw in the log, but theres nothing there. I really don't know what happened with this program.

Best regards,

Aníbal.

Try starting Tomboy with --debug, but redirect output to a file. So, from a terminal, run `tomboy --debug &> out.txt` .

Then, when Tomboy starts hanging, from another terminal run `kill -s QUIT $(pidof tomboy)` . That will trigger Tomboy to dump even more output (but it won't actually kill Tomboy). Attach the out.txt file you've created to this bug and we'll see if we can get some info out of it.

Sandy,

It's extrange but when I start tomboy in debug mode work fine, but when I
kill it, it's pull over the CPU to maximum.

I attach the log file.

Unfortunately the log is not useful if the kill command isn't run when Tomboy is hanging.

One thing that running with --debug does is that it rebuilds the add-in database, which occasionally fixes problems. So you may want to wait and see if the problem returns.

Yes, I prefer wait if the problem returns. I've work with another issue and
later I try to reproduce the hang. Another thing, the hang occurs when
unsetup some "topos" (spanish) in one note, and I was working with 4 or 5
notes at the same time. But I thing the problem occurs with the database,
like you said.
