 Thanks for your reply. Apologies for the delay, but I do not connect each 
days. About your offer, I'm a bit embarassed due the situation is not the 
same now:
First, as I suspected SDL (Beta in 1.6), I removed all the related code to 
SDL, then I unchecked SDL components from the project properties
 The crash was always there, but the message is different (Sure enough, no 
more SDL!). Now it is Signal #11. Here is the exact text I noted

"Le programme s'est arreté de manière inattendue en déclenchant le signal #11"
(I've no idea what that means!)

Second, I thank my problem coud come from too much graphics (PictureBox, 
Pictures, etc) so I deeply modified the prog. I reduce the Pictures from 89 
to 22, and replaced them by Drawing them (very simple, colored square with a 
colored letter inside). Well, it was not a big success because the program 
crash more quickly, during the first game.

To investigate a bit, I written a little prog to reproduce the drawing 
scenario, but even 20.000 iterations doesn't crash anything

My conclusion is it is not a coding error but a bad conception.

Sure, I could send the project but it is almost 27Meg and I live in a place 
where ADSL is yet a dream for 2 years. So I just have a 56K modem. Plus, the 
Gambas project is in a PC without connection (I've moved it near a phone 
connector to unload Gambas, but now I replaced it in my living room). I will 
see if a reduced version (no title screen, no sound, few graphics,...) will 
cause a crash. If yes I will manage to send it to you

Could you give me the meaning of the message please, I'm a very beginner in 
Linux (I don't even know how to launch the exec I produced in Gambas!)

Thanks for your help
