Here is a similar report from fedora-list: https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-list/2004-December/msg05889.html Could you please try running this as root?: perl -e 'ioctl(STDIN,0x84005001,$result);print $result' </dev/usb/lp0 Does that do the same thing? [root@localhost ~]# perl -e 'ioctl(STDIN,0x84005001,$result);print $result' </dev/usb/lp0 *** glibc detected *** malloc(): memory corruption: 0x08064f78 *** Aborted Apparently so. This is going wrong in the perl program then. Chip, any idea what's up? I just noticed that when I run this program at home it does not hang. I have a notebook that i use in a docking station at work, where the program hangs. The docking station has a usb parallel printer port emulator. Perhaps something is going on with that that is causing the problem? Is there a workaround.. I don't care about using the parallel port? *** Bug 153929 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** *** Bug 155007 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** Is this the same issue as Bug #144536? |
