I have an odd problem which causes my machine to crash, and i have finally
got it to reproduce itself twice in a row...
I am running root 2.20.06 on RedHat linux.
I don't have the exact transcript, because it always crashes, but here it
is.
root [0] TFile f("flipRTFbode1-1.root")
root [1] f.ls()
TFile** flipRTFbode1-1.root
TFile* flipRTFbode1-1.root
KEY: TH1F Qo;1 bode1-1-Qi
KEY: TH1F Qi;1 bode1-1-Qi
KEY: TH1F P1;1 bode1-1-P1
KEY: TH1F P2;1 bode1-1-P2
KEY: TH1F P3;1 bode1-1-P3
KEY: TH1F P4;1 bode1-1-P4
KEY: TH1F bode1-1-Qo;1 bode1-1-Qo
KEY: TH1F bode1-1-Qi;1 bode1-1-Qi

root [2] Qo.Draw()
// At this point, i make the canvas Log Y, by clicking with mouse.
Warning in <MakeDefCanvas>: creating a default canvas with name c1
root [3] Qi.Draw("same")
root [4] P1.Draw("same")
root [5] P2.Draw("same")
root [6] P3.Draw("same")
root [7] P4.Draw("same")
// At this point i draw some text on the screen with the mouse:
// Edit, Editor, Text, Canvas, Type something, Text again, Canvas , Type
something else,
At this point, if i go to move one of the text objects, it draws some
fuzzy dots, and then hangs my machine up completely (ie. the only thing it
responds to is the power switch).
I put the file flipRTFbode1-1.root in the anonymous rootd directory on
wimp.fnal.gov, so you can open the file from there, although i have had
this same problem with other histograms...
Let me know if anyone else has had this problem, or if you can reproduce
it.
Thanks,
