With r33300 it core dumps in almost every menu I choose in the main menu. (only weather, pictures and system works without core dumping)

The debug are from when I choose Videos in the main menu

I tried downgrade to r33035 and that revision works great.

I compiled it with

Code:

svn up
make distclean
./bootstrap
./configure --disable-crystalhd
make -j2

Actually, I'm seeing the same thing as well ... I tested this out as well using R33311

Here is my crashlog:

Actually, sitting here whilst I recompile an earlier version, it seems to just be randomly crashing - Now it is sitting idle with X displayed on the TV

This is the crashlog from the previous crash when it crashed at idle:

From .xsession-errors I see:

Xsession: X session started for gryph at Mon Aug 30 00:02:00 EST 2010
Segmentation fault (core dumped)

If I revert back to my previous install - R33060 - Then I've lost the DB, which I was using MySQL (but always kept a backup standard DB), if I remove this from the advancedsettings.xml file, then it works as normal.

Can you try a clean checkout first.

Gryph,

You need gdb installed for us to see what is going on.

But, as bobo1on1 said, either do a fresh checkout or do a make distclean and reconfigure.

Any crash I see stemming from the addons usually means a proper cleaning is needed. Not sure why that is but usually a distclean will fix it for me.

In my script I had make clean and make distclean, I don't now if that could cause the problem.
But I compiled r33300 again only with make distclean and it works now.

[bobo1on1]

Preferably, you'd clean before doing svn up.

Preferably, you'd clean before doing svn up.

Aha, that makes perfect sense. Thank you.

Cheers bobo1on1 & tslayer - I thought I had done a distclean when I recompiled it, but obviously not, stupid exams ruining perfectly good something something purple monkey dishwasher!

I checked out another copy, and this has worked (including seeing the MySQL database again), tested again on the previous copy, making certain I did a distclean, and well, it works as well!

Head a bit clearer now exam has been sat; now to start on a more interesting unit "Perspectives on Security & Terrorism"

Thanks again for your help ...
