Bug 54133 – mplayer-1.0_pre4 segmentation fault

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Vlad Berditchevskiy 2004-06-16 15:39:20 UTC]

After updating glibc to the latest version (2.3.3.20040420) mplayer stopped working (segmentation fault immediately after start, even if I just run 'mplayer --help'). I tried to recompile mplayer, but it didn't help. I'm not absolutely sure if it is because of the new glibc though.

Portage 2.0.50-r8 (default-x86-1.4, gcc-3.3.3, glibc-2.3.3.20040420-r0, 2.6.4-gentoo-r1)

BTW, this has something to do with nvidia-opengl. If I switch back to the xfree opengl lib, mplayer works again.

[Comment 2 Patrick Kursawe (RETIRED) 2004-06-17 05:56:49 UTC]

so maybe the xfree guys can tell more about this?

[Comment 3 Luca Barbato 2004-06-17 09:31:56 UTC]

What happens to the other applications using the nvidia opengl implementation?

[Comment 4 Vlad Berditchevskiy 2004-06-18 11:42:49 UTC]

It seems to affect all opengl applications. Howewer I found a workaround: installing the lates unstable version of nvidia-kernel and nvidia-glx (5636) seems to fix this problem.

Is this bug considered solved then, or do we need more evaluation here?  If this bug is solved, please close it.
