Yes, that code will crash my machine (Ubuntu). I upgraded to the latest Pharo 3.0 and added the newest Athens-Morphic package to get AthensWrapMorph. Of the Athens packages, I have the following versions: Balloon 13 Cairo 51 CairoPools 9 Core 51 Examples 26 Morphic 25 PangoCairo 14 Text 7 Tutorial 7 Cheers, Jeff PS Just adding the 30 point string by itself crashes the VM.

I keep on crashing my VM based on using Athens to render fonts. Some things work; some don't. It is a mystery.
I managed to install the TrueType fonts. I'm using StringMorph in an AthensWrapMorph, so it is rendered in Athens. When I do the following, it seems to work fine:
string := StringMorph contents: 'HelloWorld' font: (LogicalFont familyName: 'Arial' pointSize: 20). string color: Color white. string position: 100 @ 100. self addMorph: string.
When I changed it to 30, it initially crashed. Now it doesn't crash, but the rendering is the same as for 20. When I change it to 40, it crashes. When I add two strings, one of size 20 and one of size 30, it crashes. All of these things render fine outside of Athens (i.e., I just open them in the world).
What am I doing wrong?
What platform you running, and can you share your code?
Following runs well on my image (mac):
| m string | m := AthensWrapMorph new.
string := StringMorph contents: 'HelloWorld' font: (LogicalFont familyName: 'Arial' pointSize: 20). string color: Color red .
m addMorph: string.
string := StringMorph contents: 'HelloWorld' font: (LogicalFont familyName: 'Arial' pointSize: 30). string color: Color green .
m addMorph: string.
m openInWindow
