solarian Posted July 3, 2005 Report Share Posted July 3, 2005 (edited) $ operaSegmentation fault $ What to do? Is it something to do with the hard drive? Other programs work without problems. I've tried various Opera rpms, it worked the last MDV2005 installation. All rpms taken from the Opera website/mirrors, compiled for 10.1, but as I said, they worked my previous 10.2 installation. p.s. I've read some other posts about segmentation fault here, but they talk something about removing a chinese language support, or mcc having not updated repos, etc. Edited July 13, 2005 by solarian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ianw1974 Posted July 3, 2005 Report Share Posted July 3, 2005 I had an issue with SCIM, which is the chinese support. I didn't even install it, but it got there somehow with updates or something. So I just removed, it didn't complain about dependencies. I think the other ones related to libstd++ and so on. But this was normally when installing Firefox, might be worth a shot. I don't use Opera myself :P , but it might work in the same way as Firefox. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
solarian Posted July 3, 2005 Author Report Share Posted July 3, 2005 I'm a part-time webdesigner, I use Firefox, but need Opera for validating my work. I have libstd++ installed. Weird that I have only that "fragmentation fault" output and nothing more detailed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ianw1974 Posted July 3, 2005 Report Share Posted July 3, 2005 Yeah, I thought that too! The only other time I've seen similar was when trying to run OpenOffice on LE2005 on my laptop. For some reason wouldn't work until I had OpenGL enabled, etc, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
solarian Posted July 3, 2005 Author Report Share Posted July 3, 2005 (edited) This is what I get after trying to run it from the source package (not rpm) [user@localhost opera-8.01-20050615.5-shared-qt.i386-en]$ ./opera./opera: line 259: 25170 Segmentation fault './bin/opera' Edited July 3, 2005 by solarian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scarecrow Posted July 3, 2005 Report Share Posted July 3, 2005 Please try "strace -o file opera", to see what's wrong. Of course you must have the strace debugger installed, and "file" should be replaced by the output of your choice, e.g. "/home/solarian/operaerror".

solarian Posted July 3, 2005 Author Report Share Posted July 3, 2005 (edited) Thank you for the advice! From what I get I don't have 'libXcursor', but that's a part of 'libxfree86-4.3-32.4.100mdk.i586.rpm', not Xorg ... here is the error file if you like (see end)-> operaerror.tar.gz Edited July 3, 2005 by solarian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scarecrow Posted July 4, 2005 Report Share Posted July 4, 2005 (edited) Does it happen with a generic, statically built RPM (from Opera site), or just with the Mandrake RPM? Last RPM on Opera site was built against 10.1 libs, not 10.2, and was probably using an X-compatibility library.

solarian Posted July 4, 2005 Author Report Share Posted July 4, 2005 There is no Mandriva 10.2 RPM! Not on cds (of course) not on urpmi. I used the rpm built for 10.1 and the source (tar.gz) version from opera website, they both failed to work, but the 10.1 rpm had worked on my previous 10.2 installation Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FreeEagle Posted July 13, 2005 Report Share Posted July 13, 2005 opera: [java] Disabling java due to potential problems. If you know what you are doing, you can set the environment variable OPERA_FORCE_JAVA_ENABLED to '1' to override this. Start Opera with '-debugjava' argument for more information. [freeeagle@pc11 8.01-20050615.5]$ opera -debugjava opera: [java] There seems to be a preloaded version of Xt. There is a workaround for this problem in the opera startup script. If that workaround fails, opera will most likely crash every time it tries to use Java. The workaround seems to have failed. Java will be disabled. Technical explanation: There is a problem with the order of loading Xt and Java. If Xt is loaded before libawt (part of Java), Java will crash when it tries to access the screen. The workaround is based on using LD_PRELOAD to load libawt.so first. opera: [java] Disabling java due to potential problems. If you know what you are doing, you can set the environment variable OPERA_FORCE_JAVA_ENABLED to '1' to override this. The actual problems should be described above. Segmentation fault this is the output that i got.... Any Idea how to solve this Problem ? please with details i am still newbie Regards, FreeEagle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
