280425 - Repeated crashes in cocoa scrollbar code

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 277923

(Camino Graveyard :: General, defect)

Description

[C. Taylor]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; en-US; rv:1.8b) Gecko/20050128 Camino/0.8+
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; en-US; rv:1.8b) Gecko/20050128 Camino/0.8+

My apologies if this is an improperly placed 'bug,' but I had nowhere else to
turn for help. These crashes have happened almost exclusively when it comes to
sending information some way or other (i.e., sending Amazon e-mail
notifications, using searches, signing up for forums,) and never seem to occur
just clicking on a normal website. That's as much as I can narrow it down myself
as the logs are essentially foreign to me. I've attached the crash log thus far.

Reproducible: Sometimes

Steps to Reproduce:
As it's a touch-and-go thing, I cannot simply just reproduce on command. It's a
sporadic thing. 


Expected Results:  
Simply sent the information and not crashed.

most of the crashes in the attached log are from:

1   com.apple.AppKit          	0x92e78224 -[NSApplication sendAction:to:from:] +
0x6c
2   com.apple.AppKit          	0x92e7ef40 -[NSControl sendAction:to:] + 0x60
3   com.apple.AppKit          	0x92ed33c8 -[NSScroller sendAction:to:] + 0x5c
4   com.apple.AppKit          	0x92e7c098 -[NSScroller trackKnob:] + 0x298
5   com.apple.AppKit          	0x92eef2ac -[NSScroller mouseDown:] + 0x2c8

ideas?

> ideas?

Definitely got me. The logs themselves are foreign to me, so I couldn't begin to
speculate what's causing the program. If I were still using Windows I would poke
guesses at application conflicts, but as OS X doesn't really have this and it's
a Camino-specific problem, I doubt that severely.

It did just occur to me, though, that I am using a PowerMate for scrolling
part/most of the time. Could that be related to the problem? The fact taht
scrolling goes through the PowerMate before coming to Camino?

i was asking simon ;)

It sounds like the PowerMate might be the issue. Try disconnecting it and seeing
if that fixes the problem.

Looks like a dup to me, crash logs are pretty much the same.
