Grabbing a Ralph's bugs.
Comment 4 Hin-Tak Leung 2010-08-02 00:00:43 UTC 
The fedora 13-shipped binary does not show this problem; and out of about 15 of snapshot of various age, all except two shows: "free(): invalid pointer: ...."
Comment 5 Hin-Tak Leung 2010-08-02 00:32:08 UTC 
Re-assigning bugs which still have work to do.
Comment 6 Till Kamppeter 2010-08-02 06:43:24 UTC 
I could not reproduce the bug on my system, but with the patch applied the driver also works for me. So to make sure the driver works for everyone I have applied the patch now.

It also affects only the base/gdevimgn.c file and so cannot break anything else.

Fixed in revision 11585.
Comment 7 Till Kamppeter 2010-08-08 16:49:55 UTC 
Probably bug #689505 is the same.
