Hello all, xmms compiles fine, but when you try to start it, it just segfaults: "chris $ xmms Segmentation fault You've probably found a bug in XMMS, please visit http://bugs.xmms.org and fill out a bug report." Below is my "emerge info" output, i guess all the info i can give is covered there. Good Luck and thanks, Chris "Dr_Jekyll" Borsbach Portage 2.0.43 (default-ppc-1.0, gcc-2.95.3, glibc-2.2.5-r4,2.2.5-r5) ================================================================= System uname: 2.4.20-rc1-ben0 ppc PowerBook4,1 USE="oss nls mitshm ppc gnome-libs gdbm berkdb slang tetex java guile sdl gpm libwww esd imlib oggvorbis motif cdr scanner gnome gtk bonobo evo gb gtkhtml tcltk dvd mozilla perl mysql samba cups slp kde qt qtmt arts ncurses readline gif jpeg png mpeg xmms ssl pam socks5 imap tcpd spell truetype xml2 pdflib python X xv opengl dga nocardbus -avi" ARCH="ppc" COMPILER="" CHOST="powerpc-unknown-linux-gnu" CFLAGS=" -O2 -pipe -mcpu=750 -mpowerpc-gfxopt -mmultiple -mstring " CXXFLAGS=" -O2 -pipe -mcpu=750 -mpowerpc-gfxopt -mmultiple -mstring " ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="ppc" CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc /var/qmail/control /usr/share/config /usr/kde/2/share/config /usr/kde/3/share/config" CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK="/etc/gconf /etc/env.d" MAKEOPTS="-j2" JDK_HOME="/opt/blackdown-jdk-1.3.1" JAVA_HOME="/opt/blackdown-jdk-1.3.1" AUTOCLEAN="yes" SYNC="rsync://rsync.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage" GENTOO_MIRRORS="http://www.ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/distributions/gentoo"
if you run it as root does it work ?
No, same behavior when running xmms as root. Chris
have you emerged any xmms plugins ?
No, no xmms-plugins were emerged. Chris
Hello everybody, i juste emerged the xmms-1.2.7-r13 ebuild, and theis release works fine... Strange but true. Regards, Chris
what version was segfaulting on you ?
That was 1.2.7-r14.
same thing is happening to me, here's emerge info Portage 2.0.43 (default-ppc-1.0, gcc-2.95.3, glibc-2.2.5-r4,2.2.5-r7) ================================================================= System uname: 2.4.19-r6 ppc USE="oss dvd xv libwww jpeg nls mitshm gif png truetype ppc gnome-libs gdbm berkdb slang readline aalib java guile X sdl gpm tcpd pam ssl perl python esd imlib motif opengl mozilla cdr oggvorbis gtk -gnome -kde -qt crypt" ARCH="ppc" COMPILER="" CHOST="powerpc-unknown-linux-gnu" CFLAGS=" -O2 -pipe -mcpu=750 -mpowerpc-gfxopt -mmultiple -mstring " CXXFLAGS=" -O2 -pipe -mcpu=750 -mpowerpc-gfxopt -mmultiple -mstring " ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="ppc" CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc /var/qmail/control /usr/share/config /usr/kde/2/share/config /usr/kde/3/share/config" CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK="/etc/gconf /etc/env.d" MAKEOPTS="-j2" JDK_HOME="" JAVA_HOME="/opt/blackdown-jre-1.3.1" AUTOCLEAN="yes" SYNC="rsync://rsync.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage" GENTOO_MIRRORS="http://www.ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/distributions/gentoo" good luck tracking this one down :)
It would really help if someone could build a non stripped version of XMMS and run it through GDB and post a backtrace, gdb xmms run .. when it segfaults .. bt
Um, sorry, i don't really know what a "non stripped" version is, do you mean a "non gentoo-ebuild" version?

what he means by 'no strip' is that the binaries shouldnt have the debug symbols stripped from them notice in your output you see a lot of (no debugging symbols found) do this: (1) edit the xmms ebuild and add a line to the top: RESTRICT="nostrip" (2) emerge xmms (3) run gdb on xmms again
I did that, but the gdb output I get is identical to the output posted earlier. Can I do something to verify that the ebuild modification worked?
what if you `rm -rf /usr/lib/xmms/*` ? does it at least start up then ?
Yep it does!
mind doing a little repetitive work ? emerge xmms and rm 1 plugin at a time till it works ...
No problem: after deleting /usr/lib/xmms/Input/libidcin.so, xmms starts... I deleted the plugins in "Effect" and "General" one by one before.
-r15 will delete that plugin for you ... talking to the xmms dev's and they say they stopped distro-ing that plugin anyways http://cvs.gentoo.org/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/gentoo-x86/media-sound/xmms/xmms-1.2.7-r15.ebuild?rev=1.1&content-type=text/vnd.viewcvs-markup
