** Summary changed:

- Two-window crash: After away for a while, new inbound conversation opens two windows, causes crash
+ Two-window crash: When idle, new inbound conversation opens two windows, leads to crash

** Description changed:

  This problem started with the Edgy Eft upgrade, which included the Gaim
  upgrade.
  
  I will sometimes come back to my computer to find that someone has IM'd
  me, and that two conversation windows have opened for it.  One window is
- blank, the other sometimes has the messages. After trying to click on
- them or the Gaim icon (not sure of which), Gaim crashes w/ a bug report
- dialog.
+ blank, the other has the messages. After trying to click on the blank
+ window, Gaim crashes w/ a bug report dialog.
  
- I have a laptop, so when I'm away for a while, the lid is down, meaning
- gnome-screensaver has locked the screen -- if that is relevant. I
- believe it may be, since my away reporting is based upon X usage.
+ This only occurs when 1) I am idle and 2) the incoming message is
+ starting a new conversation. My idle reporting is based upon X usage.
  
- I will attach the backtrace as soon as I figure out how.
+ See next comment for backtrace.
  
  Installed are these relevant packages:
  
  gaim 1:2.0.0+beta3.1-1ubuntu9
  gaim-data 1:2.0.0+beta3.1-1ubuntu9
  gaim-encryption 3.0+beta5-2
  gaim-extendedprefs 0.5-4build1
  gaim-guifications 2.13~beta3-ubuntu1
  gaim-irchelper 0.13-4
  gaim-otr 3.0.0+cvs20060530-1
  
  The activated plugins are:
  
  Buddy State Notification
  Extended Preferences
  History
  IRC Helper
  Message Notification
  Nautilus Integration
  Off-the-Record Messaging
  System Tray Icon
  
  I will attempt to produce steps to reproduce the bug, which has occurred
  for both MSN and AIM protocol conversations. I am willing to modify
  preferences and settings at the request of others to help narrow down
  this bug.
