Vlc on 2009.0 64 gives segfault

So_it_goes · December 5, 2008

Can't run vlc ( 3mdv2009.0 x86_64 )

When I start it from the menu nothing happens

and /var/log/messages says:

Dec 5 09:17:46 localhost kernel: vlc[12592]: segfault at 0 ip 00007f9d109244b2 sp 0000000045df2250 error 4 in libqimsw-multi.so[7f9d10921000+5000]

Open up a console prompt, and try to run vlc from there by typing:

vlc

then we can see any output from the console window as to what might be going wrong. Then, we can suggest what might solve it, or perhaps open a bug report at:

https://qa.mandriva.com

as if there's nothing we can do to fix it, a bug will need to be opened so that the Mandriva developers can sort it out.

Alternatively, check your system has been updated completely, and try it again to see if the problem is resolved - as I don't know if you've applied updates since your installation or not.

Hi

Thanks for the help.

Completly updated.

The libs are those that gets selected when I install vlc 3mdv.....

You're using the vlc out of the backports repo. Do you have backports enabled all the time in your software sources? What DE are you using? What is the output of

rpm -qa |grep -i vlc

So_it_goes · December 5, 2008

Using Xfce since KDE is to much of a mess right now and never got into gnome.

I Checked the repositories and yes I have backports enabled( how that happend I don't know ).

Is there a safe way to remove any packages loaded from the backports ?

The backports I hopefully can remove by uncheck them in MCC.

# rpm -qa |grep vlc

vlc-plugin-ogg-0.9.7-3mdv2009.0

lib64vlccore0-0.9.7-3mdv2009.0

vlc-plugin-a52-0.9.7-3mdv2009.0

vlc-0.9.7-3mdv2009.0

vlc-plugin-pulse-0.9.7-3mdv2009.0

vlc-plugin-theora-0.9.7-3mdv2009.0

lib64vlc2-0.9.7-3mdv2009.0

Hmm, if i only could get connected to the mandriva.com

community, I would sign up for test of the installation.

//

Greg2 · December 5, 2008

Did you have all the backport repos (i.e., main, contrib, and non-free) enabled when you updated your system? If you did, you probably have a huge amount of backport rpms installed. I'm sorry, but I don't know how to safely reverse what has happened.

Are you having any problems besides vlc? If not, you could disable all the backport repos, then try to fix vlc. What's your output of

rpm -qa | grep -E -i 'qt3|qt4'

It appears that the vlc from backports is incompatible with the existing 2009.0 qt3-common and qt4-common files. I believe that is why you are getting this in your logs:

vlc[12592]: segfault at 0 ip 00007f9d109244b2 sp 0000000045df2250 error 4 in libqimsw-multi.so[7f9d10921000+5000]

I would suggest that you use your gui package manager to try and remove:

vlc-plugin-ogg-0.9.7-3mdv2009.0

lib64vlccore0-0.9.7-3mdv2009.0

vlc-plugin-a52-0.9.7-3mdv2009.0

vlc-0.9.7-3mdv2009.0

vlc-plugin-pulse-0.9.7-3mdv2009.0

vlc-plugin-theora-0.9.7-3mdv2009.0

lib64vlc2-0.9.7-3mdv2009.0

Then disable all backports and reinstall those packages. Let us know if that works?

ianw1974 · December 6, 2008

I find that strange, because when I had 2009.0 installed, I had backports enabled, and vlc worked fine. But I've not tested it within the last month, so if something changed, this could be why I never saw it.

Greg2 · December 6, 2008

That version of vlc and its depends/plugins were backported and added to the repo 12/02/2008.

So_it_goes · December 7, 2008

So which version should I use ?

I've tried with .1 and plf and I get the same error.

Is there something else I can do except reinstall( even though I'm used to it when I upgrade ).

Greg2 · December 7, 2008

So which version should I use ?

Here's what I'm using (without any problems) from the PLF repo.

[greg@halfway ~]$ rpm -qa | grep -i vlc
vlc-plugin-flac-0.9.3-2plf2009.0
vlc-plugin-a52-0.9.3-2plf2009.0
vlc-plugin-opengl-0.9.3-2plf2009.0
libvlccore0-0.9.3-2plf2009.0
libvlc2-0.9.3-2plf2009.0
vlc-plugin-ogg-0.9.3-2plf2009.0
vlc-plugin-sdl-0.9.3-2plf2009.0
vlc-plugin-pulse-0.9.3-2plf2009.0
vlc-0.9.3-2plf2009.0
vlc-plugin-mod-0.9.3-2plf2009.0
vlc-plugin-aa-0.9.3-2plf2009.0

vlc-plugin-theora-0.9.3-2plf2009.0
vlc-plugin-ncurses-0.9.3-2plf2009.0

Naturally, yours would be from the 64-bit repos.

So_it_goes · December 7, 2008

I checked your files in my MCC -> Install & remove Software

The only ones that isn't matching are the libs, they are 3mdv2009 , yours are 2plf2009.

And these libs are the only visible ones in my MCC.

Tried with the 2plf2009 again, but got segmentation error.

Found out what enabled the backports.

MCC-> Install & Remove Software -> Update Media -> Select All -> Update

I didn't think that 'Select All' should add new 'medias' ??

What is your output of

urpmq --list-url

So_it_goes · December 8, 2008

The manually edited list, I've removed all backport references that the 'update media' added.
