When I press space bar continusly idle-python task have
a random freeze 8/10 times before the caracter 300.
I must kill the task and restart

This arrive frequently during my development.

Architecture :
idle python 2.3
Debian sarge without modification
XFCE 4.0 
Nvidia driver 
hp nx9105 

I have try to made again the bug on other architecture
but i don't have success on windows XP and debion in
virtual pc.

What happens when you start IDLE with no subprocess (use the
-n switch)?

You say it happens frequently in development.  I assume that
you mean that in normal use after typing for some time IDLE
will freeze.  Correct?

Ok, this looks like a duplicate of Bug 1108992.  It appears
to be a Tcl bug or maybe a pthread bug.  Refer to the gdb
trace attached to that bug.

There's nothing I can do in IDLE, which is pure Python.  I
suggest you make sure you are apt-get upgraded and if the
problem persists, either try Python from Sid or submit a
Debian bug.
