Description

I've not seen such crash on x86_64 F-9, as a normal user. Can you please run flegita under gdb, collect the backtrace and post the result? (To run flegita under gdb, run gdb on the commandline line; at the gdb prompt, type 'file /usr/bin/flegita'; then type 'run'. And if you are able to reproduce the crash while running under gdb, type 'bt' to generate the backtrace. Thank you. Created attachment 308256 [details]
running flegita from gdb
Results from running flegita under GDB - I've installed the debuginfo rpm for
gnome-scan, but I guess that this will could be more useful if I install more
debuginfo rpms.
The interesting lines (well, to me at any rate) are
FATAL: Error inserting parport
(/lib/modules/2.6.25.4-30.fc9.i686/kernel/drivers/parport/parport.ko):
Operation not permitted
FATAL: Error inserting parport_pc
(/lib/modules/2.6.25.4-30.fc9.i686/kernel/drivers/parport/parport_pc.ko):
Operation not permitted
FATAL: Error inserting lp
(/lib/modules/2.6.25.4-30.fc9.i686/kernel/drivers/char/lp.ko): Operation not
permitted
suggesting that for some reason these kernel modules aren't loaded correctly.

GDB running as root
Same proceedure, this time running as root.
From where did you get /usr/lib/libmfp.so? What scanner in particular are you trying to use with flegita when it crashed, and have you installed any closed source scanner driver? Ah, yes. Should have thought of that. The scanner is a Samsung SCX-4200, which comes with its own closed source drivers, which seem to be causing the problems. Using the information on the web (particularly the instructions at http:// ubuntu-utah.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=245545 and http:// jacobo.tarrio.org/Samsung_SCX-4200_on_Debian ) I have worked around these problems and got things working OK. Sorry for the noise, this bug can be closed as far as I'm concerned. (In reply to comment #5) > Ah, yes. Should have thought of that.

OK. Actually you could have close the bug yourself, since you're the reporter. I'm closing it now. |
