     Type:  defect          |    Status:  new     
Component:  unclassified    |   Version:  2.5.2   
 Keywords:  gstreamer       |  
----------------------------+-----------------------------------------------
 Running Pidgin 2.5.2-1 under Fedora 10's Rawhide repository (Fedora 10)
 with Linux kernel revision 2.6.27.4-79. Have been experiencing frequent
 crashes.

 {{{

 (pidgin:8471): GStreamer-CRITICAL **:
 Trying to dispose element play, but it is not in the NULL state.
 You need to explicitly set elements to the NULL state before
 dropping the final reference, to allow them to clean up.

 (pidgin:8471): GStreamer-CRITICAL **: gst_element_set_state: assertion
 `GST_IS_ELEMENT (element)' failed

 (pidgin:8471): GStreamer-CRITICAL **: gst_object_unref: assertion
 `((GObject *) object)->ref_count > 0' failed

 '''(last two lines are outputted multiple times)'''

 E: shm.c: mmap() failed: Cannot allocate memory
 '''(last one line is outputted multiple times)'''

 pidgin: pulse.c:203: pulse_new: Assertion `p->context' failed.
 Pidgin 2.5.2-1.fc10 has segfaulted and attempted to dump a core file.

 }}}

 Seems to happen randomly, averaging to about about once per 20 minutes.
 First noticed the problem yesterday (2008-11-09); enabled the History
 plugin (2.5.2-1) then or a few days before. Have been using same version
 under Fedora 10 for approx. two weeks. Have the following plugins (all
 2.5.2-1) loaded:

 {{{
 Buddy Notes
 Buddy State Notification
 Conversation Colors
 ExtPlacement
 History
 I'dle Mak'er
 Iconify on Away
 Message Notification
 Message Timestamp Formats
 Pidgin GTK+ Theme Control
 Text replacement
 }}}
