Two possibilities: 1. Lots of distros set up a default user environment that disables core dumps. I don't remember the details on this, but I have the following line in the .bashrc for the environment I use for development: ulimit -c 1000000 2. For reasons unknown to me, sometimes you get a file called "core" and sometimes you get a file called "core.[number]" like core.1234. If you don't have a core file, look for a core.nnnn file. Also note you won't get usable core dumps unless you compile Rosegarden with debugging support (./configure --enable-debug). By default, all the debugging information is stripped out, which yields a worthless core dump that has a long list of "symbol not found" messages where useful information would be. All of the above points are outlined on some wiki page about "how to get ready to debug Rosegarden" or something to that effect. I've lost track of it. -- D.
