Your timing is incredible: I just found a similar problem on my system
at work here, minutes before reading your mail. The grabber crashes if
I move the mouse around over the gui elements, or if the window gets
the focus after it starts. I either get
Shutting down Allegro due to signal #11
or
Shutting down Allegro due to signal #11
Segmentation fault (core dumped)
depending on the phase of the moon, I think. This never happened
before on this system, and the only change I can see is that it was
recently given a second CPU and an SMP kernel.
allegro-4.0.3 (used to work perfectly, afaik)
gcc-3.3
linux 2.4.9-13smp (redhat 7.2 with smp support).
Dual Intel Xeon 1700MHz
No, I cannot try a newer kernel (wish I could, work machine I do not
have root access to). Apparently Dan has the same problem with 4.1.11,
so maybe this is an older problem and not just something in the WIP
version. I'm busy here at work, but if people have a concrete list of
tests I can do for more information I'll be happy to comply beginning
of next week.

Unix is user friendly. It's just very particular about who
