Hi, recently my application encountered an unusual bug. The bug seemed
random so I can't recreate it (only if I was lucky enough). The bug
appears every now and then when I clicked the mouse. It displayed :
"Fatal signal: Segmentation Fault (SDL Parachute Deployed)".

The application itself was initiated inside of .xinitrc because I wanted
it to be started automatically everytime I logged in. So after the error
appears, I opened an xterm console and restarted the application. And the
problem didn't appear (yet!).

The question is:
1. What caused the SDL Parachute error?
2. Why was it appear random ?

Can anybody help me? Many-many thanks in advance.


Fare thee well,
Bawenang R. P. P.
