It just seems to be a driver for a particular 3D mouse, so unless you have one of those, you won’t miss much. I had similar segfaults whenever UI controls were part of the output of some evaluation and that fixed it for me. Took a bit of strace-ing to figure that out.

to take a look. I will definitely check it out now though.

It is in the repositories, at least under Kubuntu (7.04 and 7.10 as well).
Greetings, mir@
