Hi,

Thanks for the bug report.

In order to fix the bug we will need a backtrace of the
crash. Please see

https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingProgramCrash

and

https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Backtrace

for instructions on how to obtain one.

If the crash causes a bug reporting window to pop
up then please report using that instead, and then
close this bug.

Thanks,

James

Pedro: i've updated my repositories and i don't see that yet ... i just receieved the -0ubuntu1 update this morning. i'm on the canadian mirrors. i just checked packages.ubuntu.com and i don't see a -0ubuntu2 in the hardy repos? so not sure where that package is.
