Hi,

When I run Ethereal on Windows 98 SE to capture data from the dialup
modem, I have frequently encountered the error and crash.  It always
happen when I finished the capture, a DOS error window will pop up and
display one or more lines of information 
Gdk-WARNING **: gdk_text_size: gdk_nmbstowchar_ts failed
 and if I close the DOS window, the Ethereal will crash.  If I want to
save the captured data, the Ethereal will freeze and then crash. All the
captured data will be lost.  Could anyone tell me what is the problem
and how to correct it?

Thanks,

Jing
