I also have frequent crashes with NetBeans. In several, at first glance random, moments. I just found a consistent way to reproduce a crash. This is what I explain next.
Steps to reproduce: 1. Open NetBeans 2. Right-click on a project in the project browser 3. Click "Properties", a windows titled "Project Properties" will appear 4. Resize that window during a couple a couple of seconds () What should happen: The "Project Properties" window gets resized. What happens now: NetBeans crashes. If I start it from console (simply typing "netbeans"), on crashing some output appears: " The program '<unknown>' received an X Window System error. This probably reflects a bug in the program. The error was 'BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes)'. (Details: serial 18972 error_code 8 request_code 140 minor_code 4) (Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously; that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it. To debug your program, run it with the --sync command line option to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error() function.)
