    Screem HTML editor dies with ‘GSlice: assertion failed: sinfo->n_allocated > 0′

    20th August 2009

    Screem HTML/XML editor has tag-specific auto-complete, and is a nice editor for web-developers (at least as long as Quanta is not available for Debian testing).

    However, version 0.16.1 is very unstable, and dies with

    ***MEMORY-ERROR***: screem[5527]: GSlice: assertion failed: sinfo->n_allocated > 0

    As a workaround (initially suggested for the highly similar Firestarter crashes), try running screem with this command:

    G_SLICE=always-malloc screem

    Too bad last development version of Screem is dated March 2006.

    Note: that article is not about using JS and/or tables and/or complicated CSS to make round borders – instead, the CSS3 border-radius property is reviewed.
