kudzu crashes with Segmentation Fault
Last modified: 2014-03-16 22:41:10 EDT
From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; Konqueror/3.1; Linux) Description of problem: kudzu crashes with the following message: "/etc/rc5.d/S05kudzu: line 97 /usr/sbin/kudzu $KUDZU_ARG -t 30" This message is shown during boot process and command line input. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): kudzu-1.1.36-1 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Reboot the computer or 2. input the command /usr/sbin/kudzu as root at command line Actual Results: error message (description) and mouse failes (at command line) Expected Results: service runs without errors Additional info: the packages redhat-config-network, hwbrowser and isdn4k-utils doesn't work Configuration: Mainboard MSI K7T266Pro, AMD Athlon 1400MHz, 512MB RAM, ATI Radeon 9600Pro, USB PC-to-PC Controller Genelink, LG GCC-4120B CD-RW/DVD-ROM
I'm guessing it doesn't segfault if you remove the USB PC<->PC cable?
Removing the USB PC-to-PC Controller was not an good idea: The error message was now "434 Segmentation fault" (before: "467") and X-Windows starts without Mouse (Wheel PS/2) and Keyboard.
I found a bugzilla entry #106332 with the same content in FC1-test1. Norm Brake (norm@nebcs.com) developed a workaround. But I can't make a binary, because there is an "DIET" in the makefile and my system doesn't know it.
Hi, there are some news: 1. I found the dietlibc. Tthis problem is obsolete. 2. After deactivation of USB-controller in the BIOS, the problem doens't exist anymore. The redhat-config-network works fine, I have internet access with kisdndock. But I havn't any USB-devices (that is no problem, I haven't any USB-periphery). excerpt from the manual MSI K7T266Pro (MSI-6380): "...USB Interface ... controlled by the VT8233 southbridge ..." I hope the netxt version of kudzu is been fixed.
After deactivation of UBS-controller in the BIOS kudzu works fine but any USB-devices doesn't work.
I hope there are no USB-device at your PC ...
This is my problem. If I turn off the USB option in my BIOS I can't use my USB mouse
I have "downgraded" my kudzu version to kudzu-0.99.99-1 (present in RH9 CD1): rpm -Uv --oldpackage --nodeps kudzu-0.99.99-1.i386.rpm Now kudzu redhat-config-network, kisdndock and any USB device work fine, while hwbrowser doesn't work yet. However now there is a problem with redhat-config-xfree86 (the monitor configuration GUI): How to reproduce: input the command "redhat-config-xfree86" as root at command line Results: Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/share/redhat-config-xfree86/xconf.py", line 330, in ? vc = rhpl.videocard.VideoCardInfo() File "/usr/lib/python2.2/site-packages/rhpl/videocard.py", line 504, in __init__ vc.setPCIBus(card.pcibus) AttributeError: pciDevice instance has no attribute 'pcibus'
After disabling USB in BIOS I have not installed the redhat-config-xfree86 again, because this kills my boot process. I don't need it anyway. If you use an binary driver (ATI or NVIDIA), you set the X-Server once during installation and you can edit it in the /etc/X11/XFree86Config-4. BTW: Yum and synaptic are better tools than redhat-config-packages. I see, We have developed some workarounds (The Linux community works!!!) and I hope, that there are fixed packages in next time.
Please try the kudzu-1.1.36.1-1 packages at: http://people.redhat.com/notting/kudzu/ These may resolve some of your issues.
I installed this package: Success! During boot process kudzu founds the contoller and the USB-devices. Thank you. Sebastian
Cool. Closing as fixed in rawhide, update will be released for FC1 in the near future.
