Hello SuSE folkz, I'm completely puzzled... I'm getting total Segmentation Fault in SuSE9.2 If I run YaST in text mode or trying to execute make to compile some sources, it all crashes with seg fault message. Could somebody please enlighten me on this issue. Is it a SuSE kernel, deficiency in C libs or other things cause this problem? Thank you in advance for any help. Could be any of the above. You can try to run gdb on the core file, if there is one. Since you are doing things that many other people are doing routinely, I would possibly suspect some errors in installation of possibly bad memory.
To get a core dump, you need to set the corefile limit. Use the ulimit command: ulimit -c unlimited # This will set the core file limit to unlimited. ulimit -c 0 # This turns it off. So, set the limit to unlimited, and run something, like make. You can then run gdb. gdb /usr/bin/make core (gdb) r ... This will then tell you where the segfault is. It it is in a critical library, such as glibc, I would boot the installation, and reinstall. -- Jerry Feldman <gaf@blu.org> Boston Linux and Unix user group http://www.blu.org PGP key id:C5061EA9 PGP Key fingerprint:053C 73EC 3AC1 5C44 3E14 9245 FB00 3ED5 C506 1EA9
