Altap Salamander Support Forums

Hello!

On my personal computer I'm using salamander 2.5 beta 9 now without a problem. Two weeks ago I bought a notebook and I wanted to use salamander on that too. After I installed it and started to use it makes some strange things. If I delete a file, want to view a file with the viewer or want to move some files or directories the screen freezes. I can move the mouse cursor but the start menu and other programs doesn't answer. I have to wait for 2-3 minutes, then I press Ctrl+Alt+Del sometimes only once, sometimes 3 or 4 times and after that the Windows Task Manager come up and I can kill the salamander process. Sometimes when the Task Manager come up the task that i wanted to do by salamander is executed. Strange things. After that I tried some other versions. Salamander 2.5 beta 7 and beta 11 do the same but with salamander v1.52 there was no problem. Here are some things about my notebook:

AMD Sempron 3100+
512 Mb DDR
80 Gb Toshiba MK8025GAS
Filesystem: (originally it was fat32 but I converted to ntfs with windows, doing the same in each case)
Ati mobility Radeon x700
Windows Xp Home sp2 (5.1.2600)
It is an ACER 3024WLMi model.

I would be appreciate if you give me some advice what should I do.

Please try this:
1) Start two instances of Servant Salamander 2.5 beta 11.
2) Freeze one instance using delete/view method.
3) Switch to second instance and use the Help > Task List menu command.
4) Select the freezed instance and press the Break button.
5) The bug report should be generated...

Okay.

I did as you write BUT. When I open two instances of SS and freeze one I can't able to switch betweet them, I only move the cursor.
So I made this:
1.open two instances
2.freeze one with the viewer --> at this moment I can only move the cursor
3.wait until the Task Manager open
4.switch to other instance (I don't touch the freezing one) and make a bug report. --> save it
5.after that I want to click on the freezing one thinking that it's still made the task but the system hangs out again :S.

here is the log : http://sapika.uw.hu/ss_log.txt

Thank you for this bug report. Unfortunately it doesn't help me much (there are too many threads such as Eroiica Viewer, FTP client, File Comparator).

Could you please try to locate the problem? I mean:
1) start a new instance of SS and delete a file (does it freeze?)
2) start a new instance of SS and view a file (does it freeze? which viewer was used?)
...etc

I'm sorry for bothering you, but I have no other idea.

Only mentioned versions of Servant Salamander behave so strange on your new notebook? All other programs are working ok?
