It only crashes with some plugins, not all? Can you specify which

unfortunately i don't have too much time to play with this tonight.... so i
can't really say...

though when i do have time, where do i look to find output from the
crashhandler plugin ??

If it still crashes without a good reason and doesn't provide a

sry, technically i'm still a linux newb (only been using linux for nearly a
year now)

what you mean by screen and terminal ??

(i don't have another computer to do ssh with.....(unless it's possible to
ssh yourself ??))

Well you shouldn't be using libbs any more, use ccs, which is the new
> name. I think I updated the get-git script for it last night.


*annoyed face*
