Re: Bug report : Important crash of EoG

[Felix Riemann <friemann gnome org>]

Hi Nathan

Just tried your image and it opens normally here (nVidia card though)
after changing the extensions. So, there's unfortunately not much I can
do at this point. Do you have anything suspicious in the logs
(.xsession-errors, /var/log/messages, /var/log/Xorg.?.log) after the
crash?

At least we have a bug for the problem with the images having wrong
extensions: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=490067

Regards,

Felix
