Marble crashes when zooming in 17 times

[camerons]

I opened Marble from the OSGeo-Live DVD 5.0rc1,  http://live.osgeo.org (which is an extension of Xubuntu 10.04)

I then searched for "Sydney" and looked at Sydney successfully. I then pressed the "+" zoom in button 17 times, reasonably quickly. After the 17th time, the application crashed and offered me to send a KDE bug report. (possibly could have been 16 or 18 times).

shrug, works for me.

anyway this isn't a bug in the livedvd packaging, and marble is straight from the ubuntu reops, so the bug report probably belongs in the ubuntu bug tracker & not here.

(aka nothing much we can do about it)
