Description Daniel Weller 2002-11-20 14:06:50 UTC

When I choose Netplay->Internet in the zsnes Menu, it crashes with: 
Fatal signal: Segmentation Fault (SDL Parachute Deployed) 
This happened to me both on an Athlon with a Geforce and on my Pentium 4 Laptop 
which has an ATI Radeon Mobility. 
 
My versions are: 
zsnes 1.36 
libsdl 1.2.5 
 
What could be the cause of this?

try running this: 
strace -s 4096 zsnes >& zsneslog 
and then making it crash ...

I've attached the output of $strace -s 4096 zsnes >& zsneslog!

Just to clairify...it's not when you try to connect to a server, right?  It's
when you click the Internet item under the "Netplay" menu item on startup screen menu bar.  This works for me.  I didn't try connecting to a server because I
don't know of one off hand.  If you get a crash when connecting to a specific
server, ie, a crash when clicking on "Connect to server" let me know what
server you're trying to connect to so I can try it here.

Also, please post the output of emerge info as the bug submission form asks you
to do.  Thanks.

Well, I can't reproduce this at all so I'm closing.

Daniel - go ahead and reopen if you still have a problem.

i've been getting this also for quite a while with zsnes on gentoo. even on 1.40 and i've tried the binary for zophar.net for 1.41.
