Debian :: Segfaults After Upgrading The Cpu
May 22, 2010Would upgrading your cpu ( athlon xp 1700+ to 2600 or 3200 ) be something that causes segfaults ?

Debian Multimedia :: Iceweasel Segfaults Even In Safemode After Profile Reset
Nov 7, 2015Starting around two weeks ago, Iceweasel began closing at unpredictable intervals for no apparent reason. When I ran it in GDB, it came up as a segfault, though the backtraces were different each time. It would even do this in safe mode, though it generally took longer. Icedove began doing the same thing around the same time.
So, I decided to reset my profile and start over. But now it's still segfaulting, even in safe mode.
A cursory use of memtester didn't turn up anything unusual.
Could it be some browser addon that is causing problems even when it's not activated?
If so, why is Icedove doing the same thing occasionally?
The biggest problem is that it's intermittent, so I would have to use my browser with a new profile for a long time before I could confirm that the problem is actually fixed.
Debian :: BlueZ 4.60-1 Works Great And After A Week It Segfaults And Won't Start?
Apr 27, 2010I have been using a ARM device with 512MB ram and flash to send messages via Bluetooth to everyone in the proximity. I am doing this with OpenProximity (Python) and it worked for the last week, it did stop for two times but since I didn't have time to find the cause, I just rebooted it (Windows style ) and it worked again, but suddenly it stopped working again last Saturday. When I did /etc/init.d/bluetooth restart it did not say it failed or something, but when I did /etc/init.d/bluetooth status it said "bluetooth is not running ... failed!". This is what I got in the syslog:
Code:
Apr 27 13:52:45 debian bluetoothd[31243]: Bluetooth daemon 4.60
Apr 27 13:52:45 debian bluetoothd[31243]: Starting SDP server
Apr 27 13:52:45 debian bluetoothd[31243]: Starting experimental netlink support
Apr 27 13:52:45 debian bluetoothd[31243]: Failed to find Bluetooth netlink family
Apr 27 13:52:45 debian bluetoothd[31243]: Failed to init netlink plugin
Apr 27 13:52:45 debian bluetoothd[31243]: Can't create GN bridge
[Code]...
You'll probably note that the first message is version 4.60 and the second one 4.63, this is because I tried to upgrade, but that did not work completely, but the error above is the same as first before the upgrade.
Don't know if it matters, but I am using Debian Squeeze and the output of uname -a is: Linux debian 2.6.32.2 #1 PREEMPT Fri Dec 18 22:54:28 MST 2009 armv5tel GNU/Linux. Hope someone know how this could happen suddenly, and even better, knows how to fix it
EDIT: Forgot to say, I am using a SENA Parani UD100 Bluetooth USB Adapter which uses the Toshiba Bluetooth stack.
UPDATE: It won't crash until the Bluetooth stick is inserted, so it should be a driver problem?
Debian Multimedia :: X -configure Segfaults - Sid - Cannot Create Xorg.conf To Get A Correct Resolution

View 5 Replies View RelatedDebian :: Upgrading X Stack On Debian Stable?
Jun 6, 2011I've been setting up a Lenovo Thinkpad T420i and have gotten most of the kinks worked out, except for the fact that the display has some annoying artifacts as you navigate around, I guess due to bad video support. A post [URL].. on the same machine said that upgrading all X packages to sid (unstable) fixed these problems, but those packages aren't available in stable.
I read another post (can't find the link now) that said Debian wasn't planning on backporting all the X packages, only related libraries and modules. And I don't know which ones specifically would fix the issues I'm having.
So I thought I'd ask what my options are. I could update all those to unstable, but that doesn't seem optimal (and in the future I don't want unstable bugs bringing down my whole X session). Is there a way to find out what I need and backport some myself. Or do I just need to wait until the appropriate packages filter down to stable (or at least backports)?
Ubuntu :: MPD Segfaults Is Not Working?
Apr 28, 2010So MPD keeps segfaulting everytime it tries to play anything.I tried compiling a version from the MPD site, but that couldn't even see my music for some reason. Same user running MPD, same permissions on the files... I'd really like to get MPD working again, but it keeps segfaulting with this:
Code: nas kernel: [161048.253573] mpd[22957] general protection ip:b6efc1b5 sp:b53e1850 error:0 in libavcodec.so.52.20.1[b6ab4000+52b000]
I wiped my server recently because of all the custom stuff I had installed, and now MPD won't play music .
Ubuntu :: GDM Segfaults A Lot After Update?
May 26, 2010This just started today, after I installed a round of updates yesterday: I would attempt to login to my GNOME session. One of three things happens: it hangs, looking like it's authenticating, it lets me into my session but then abruptly logs me out and wrecks anything I was doing, or GDM just crashes altogether.
On tty6, I found this error in dmesg:
Code:
gdm-session-wor[1392]: segfault at 1 ip 0000000000000001 sp 00007fff57babe18 error 14 in gdm-session-worker[400000 + 17000]
The numbers may be slightly off, I had no way to copy and paste the error. I have no modifications to GDM except libpam-usb, which doesn't even work. Is it possible to roll back GDM to before the update?
Ubuntu :: Various Segfaults And/or Crashes ?
Jul 23, 2011I have some curious errors and crashes since yesterday. Firefox crashes without saying anything or just freezes. Thunderbird also crashed once without any reason, as far as I could discern.
Compiz is another candidate. Either it segfaults and sends me back to the GDM login screen or it crashes in another way, resulting in a flickering window with an unreadable error message (just an empty window with the nautilus icon in the menu bar, background image stays the same, Unity or any other compiz things are gone). I even had some real X segfaults mixed in.
Fedora Servers :: Random Segfaults In The F10?
Mar 31, 2009I have a new IBM x3650 that I am trying to get installed and running. However, it seems to experience random segfaulting. The system has ECC RAM and I have taken a look at the EDAC reports from the kernel, but as far as I can tell there is no error.This is a critical system I need to bring up, so I can't have it act flaky like this.

Ubuntu :: Frequent Segfaults In Various Programs
May 31, 2010In LMMS, pretty much any time where pressing a key or button is supposed to do something, it can crash. Regardless of what made it crash, it always dies in the exact same way: The window just disappears, and I get the line "Segmentation fault" in the console. Usually it crashes within 15 minutes of normal use. Not even 6 hours after I downloaded the program, I had given up trying to use it. Over the next week, a couple other programs crashed with segfaults.
Most of them only crashed once (among those was Firefox). So, of course, I'm now beginning to think that maybe the problem is not with LMMS, but rather with Ubuntu. I've had very little luck getting most of these programs to crash a second time, but I did find reliable ways to reproduce the crash in LMMS and Golly, so I got debug logs of those (with backtraces and steps I took to reproduce):
Code:
What I did to make LMMS Crash:
1. After starting LMMS, created an instrument track using the Oh Synth preset (under LB302)
2. Opened the tool window for the track.
3. Dragged my cursor back and forth across the keys on the virtual piano at the bottom of said window to play them.
4. Within 3 seconds, it crashed.
Starting program: /usr/bin/lmms

3. Within 15 seconds, it crashed.

I've tried using different governors for CPU (Conservative, Ondemand, etc.), and these crashes continued to occur. I also tried using a different kernel to no avail; the crashes occur both on 2.6.32-21-generic and 2.6.31-17-generic. How to fix whatever's causing these segfaults.
Ubuntu :: 10.10: Rhythmbox Segfaults Upon Launch

Ubuntu :: Segfaults After Processor Upgrade?
Dec 3, 2010I upgraded my processor two days ago(p4 -> C2D), and ever since then I have been getting segfaults, which are causing my programs to crash randomly. At first I thought it was isolated to one program(deluge), but after searching around I was looking at the /var/log/messages and found a bunch of segfault messages after I installaed the processor. Here is the grep from the messages file:

General :: Segfaults Are Not Logging Into /var/log/messages
Dec 8, 2010I'm using Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 5. In this whenever a user process crashes due to segmentaion faults , it was not logged in /var/log/messages. Even dmesg is also not showing any messages related to this.
Where as in another distributions(Cent OS 5) I've seen segfaults messages in /var/log/messages whenever my user process crashed.dmesg also showing the segfaults.
Is there any settings that to enabled so that it logs segfaults into /var/log/messages.
I cross checked /etc/syslog.conf of both the systems. Both are same and even /etc/sysconfig/syslog files.
General :: Cause Segfaults While Compiling, If The Ram Seems To Be Fine?
Jul 22, 2011I googled around but most of what I could find said that segfaults are generally a memory issue. I've noticed lately that I'll occasionally get a segfault while compiling on my computer. There's no noticeable pattern, just that every now and then a bit of software that I'm trying to compile will segfault on me, even software that I've compiled in the past.
I ran memtest86+, but it showed no issues at all. I run a stock kernel on Slackware, with no modifications to the system other than installing multilib support (which I'm 100% sure is done correctly).

Slackware :: Firefox-3.5.2 Segfaults - ATI Video ?

I have done the obvious stuff - checking for missing libs with ldd, finding them, etc. Disks are 1-2 years old (ext3) and well checked, but this install has not been lived in yet. Plugins installed are: java 1.6.0_16; Flash 10.0 r45; SVG-2.26. Kernel is 2.6.33.2, made with 'make oldconfig from a very satisfactory 2.6.30.5 kernel which was faultless for some time.

OpenSUSE Install :: Closing Yast Something Segfaults?

Ubuntu :: XeTeX Segfaults With Custom Fonts
Mar 7, 2011I installed the Adobe Font Forge fonts. They're all OpenType fonts and reside in ~/.fonts. Since around the time when I was fiddling with them, XeTeX started segfaulting whenever I used one of them. Any other font works fine. The strange thing is that I had one font already in ~/.fonts before I installed all of the new ones, which did work fine, but which now causes a segfault. The LaTeX file looks like this:
[Code]...
end{document} When I run xelatex test.tex, it segfaults and produces the log file I've attached to this post (renamed to test.txt from test.log). But, when I run xelatex with the -no-pdf switch, it produces a file test.xdv without complaining. When I then run xdvipdfmx -vv test.xdv, it segfaults and outputs to stdout what I've attached as a file error.txt. I suspect it might have something to do with system font settings that may have been changed by Fontmatrix while I was browsing my fonts, perhaps doing something that I didn't understand and messed things up. But I don't know which settings/config files/etc that may have been affected.
General :: App Segfaults Every LiveCD/DVD Kernel Panics?
Jan 23, 2011My friend's PC recently started acting up. He had me install Sabayon on it and everything was fine until a few days ago. Every app I try to run after the PC boots results in a segmentation fault. I figured maybe something was wrong with the HDD, so I tried to boot from a DSL liveCD to run fsck, but it wouldn't boot; it freezes right away. I then tried the Sabayon LiveDVD and got a kernel panic.Does anyone have any idea what the problem could be? I am completely clueless; I've never had anything like this happen before.

Slackware :: Lensfun-0.2.5 Causing Segfaults In Digikam And Ufraw?
Jan 2, 2011Running slackware-current 32bit. I use digikam-1.7.0, kipi-plugins-1.7.0, and ufraw-0.17 which are all built using the sbo scripts from 13.1 repo. All the above work fine with lensfun-0.2.3 built from sbo, but trying to update lensfun to 0.2.5 causes segfaults in digiKam and ufraw.
Anyone else seen this and is there a fix? Seems to be caused by a change in lensfun between versions, but I think it's beyond me to sort on my own. Lensfun-0.2.5 seems to build fine without errors, but I believe there were warnings with respect to makedep. Digikam and ufraw locate the lensfun libraries during the build. Ufraw segfaults on startup and digikam segfaults when the auto lens correction tool is selected from the menu. I know none of these versions are officially supported either alone or in -current,
Slackware :: Mencoder Segfaults When Converting X264 MKVs?
Jul 3, 2011The version of mencoder I currently have installed segfaults (immediately) when you ask it to convert x264-encoded MKVs to another format. One sample command-line would be:
Code:
mencoder -nosound -ovc libdv Puella_Magi_Madoka_Magica_720p_GG_-_06.mkv -o a.avi
This produces the following output:
Code:
MEncoder 20110702-4.5.2 (C) 2000-2011 MPlayer Team
success: format: 0 data: 0x0 - 0x1c43987e
libavformat file format detected.
[Code]...
Incidentally, I'm wondering if the version of FFMpeg that the MPlayer configure script downloads might be at fault. The slightly outdated FFMpeg I installed from SBo (6.1) does not crash when converting the same file. And no, I can't use either Alien Bob's Mplayer build or the MPlayer binaries included with Slackware. Neither is built against either libdv or x264. I need libdv as an output codec.
