Good Day,

I am wondering if anyone uses tlf on opensuse.

On my machine, when it starts, a buffer overflows and the program stops. The errors are similar to those found at <http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-1045247.html>. However no solutions were posted there.

Using the debug information it appeared the error appeared in clear_display. However I am not confident in that.

Should there some compatibility libraries be installed? Should I start hacking the source looking for this error?

Thanks.

I just did "zypper in tlf" on my openSUSE 11.2 Alpha0 both x86 and x86_64 boxes, tlf started. This is what I get.
