Boris, Are you running it with default options? Try it without any switches and with .tuxpaintrc renamed if you have one. Then if it still fails, try it with the whole .tuxpaint directory renamed. There's apparently something different between your tuxpaint's runtime environment and mine because I can't reproduce this crash. We'll have to start trying to narrow down the possibilities. Ben
