Summary0000405: Crashes on Save
DescriptionI can do anything I want, as simple or complex as I want (change settings, draw stuff, etc.), but it always crashes when I try to save my work. If I change some settings and restart the program without saving a drawing, it remembers my changes; but if I try to save a drawing first, it forgets my changes and reverts back to the settings it had the last time it closed normally.

When it crashes, it does write a file with the correct name in the correct location, except with a GUID tacked on the end of the filename. I can remove the GUID, reopen the file, and continue working, but it's kind-of annoying.

I'm on Ubuntu 10.10 (Maverick), using the freecad_0.11.3729-1lucid1_i386.deb package. I didn't see a package that was designed for Maverick; could that be part of my problem?
Additional InformationI get a lot of messages in the splash screen (and the terminal when I start it that way) about not finding some icons, but everything looks right and seems to work okay...until I try to save. Then it closes immediately and prints some error messages in the terminal. (see attached)
TagsNo tags attached.

Sorry, I probably should have logged in before I submitted it.

There is always a certain risk if you use a package for a different version that things do not work as expected. You can find up-to-date packages on our Launchpad/PPA. Please try this and tell us if the problem still exists.

This should have been a simple dependency problem: python says it cannot found pivy.
apt-get install python-pivy should have remediated the problem, or a simple
apt-get -f install, if the package lists python-pivy as a dependency.

Sorry, we can't do much for this because it's a major OpenGL problem. But you can go to the preferences and switch off "General > Document > Save thumbnail into project when saving document"

The save thumbnail option seems to have fixed it. No need to install anything else. I got version 0.12 for maverick from the PPA anyway.
(still has the 0.11 splash screen and Help -> About graphic; Help -> About text says 0.12)

Thank you!
