Title: Multiple programs suddenly developed segfaults in OZ 3.3.5
Post by: tawalker on May 31, 2004, 05:41:05 pm

I have no idea why, but in the last week or so a whole bunch of programs on my SL5500 (running OZ 3.3.5) have started segfaulting (or otherwise won\'t start up) when I try and launch them. I never had any problems with them before, and they all started playing up around the same time.

Here\'s the lowdown on what I get when I try the problem apps:

XMMS
From the console:

Code: [Select]

Processing plugin: /opt/QtPalmtop/lib/xmms/Output/liboss.so

Found oplugin

Processing plugin: /opt/QtPalmtop/lib/xmms/Input/libmplayer.so

Found iplugin

Processing plugin: /opt/QtPalmtop/lib/xmms/Input/libwav.so

Found iplugin

Processing plugin: /opt/QtPalmtop/lib/xmms/Input/libxmms-mad.so

 

Segmentation fault

 

You\'ve probably found a bug in Qtopia, please visit

Gaim
Fails with a SIGSEGV

VNC server
I try to launch these from the icons in the Applications tab, but the hourglass disappears after a few seconds, and the \"System Info\" monitor doesn\'t list \"fbvncserver\" as a process. Launching \"fbvncserver\" from a console gives me this:

Code: [Select]

Inconsistency detected by ld.so: dynamic-link.h: 62: elf_get_dynamic_info: Assertion `! "bad dynamic tag"\' failed!

Kismet
I use this with the GUI, and it has started giving me the \"Failed to connect to server\" error.

I\'ve tried reinstalling a couple of these apps, but it has made no difference. The only \"intrusive\" change I\'ve made on the Z in the past week, is implement the \"multiple WiFi profiles\" trick suggested in this thread (https://www.oesf.org/forums/index.php?showtopic=4163). Looking back, I can see how it might have screwed up Kismet, but why have all these other apps gone bad?

Please tell me I don\'t have to reflash OZ to fix this :roll: Many thanks for any suggestions.

Not that it helps you any, but I'm having the same problem with gaim.

Just fixed it, make sure you have libgaim-protocols installed from their feed:
