Re: [Elecraft] KX3 Utility Segmentation Fault in Linux

Hi Knut, Because it relates to problems using our utility software his posting is certainly pertinent here. We have a lot of users who run our Utility s/w under Linux and the solution to his problem will help others. Just because you are not interested in a posting does not mean its

Re: [Elecraft] KX3 Utility Segmentation Fault in Linux

This seems quite relevant. It literally has to do with getting Elecraft-provided and supported software to function on an Elecraft-supported computer operating system. Given the software-driven nature of the Elecraft product line, you can expect some discussion on software support issues on all

Re: [Elecraft] KX3 Utility Segmentation Fault in Linux

I run my ham software on Mac, not Linux, but I’d tag that post with “Nice Elmering”. It was specific and clear. Sorry for the meta-discussion, but I rode herd on netnews discussion groups for 5000+ engineers at HP for about a decade. I’ve seen more than my share of good and bad net behavior.

Hi, I've responded in a direct email to Eric, but maybe it it did not reach the group. so here it is: Hi Eric, With all respect, I was not by any means rude. How can it be rude to ask somebody to take take their problems elsewhere where they belong? I do not think that purely operating systems

Re: [Elecraft] KX3 Utility Segmentation Fault in Linux

Please do not criticize or be rude to other's for their postings here. That's outside of Elecraft list guidelines. In fact, since this is KX3 Utility related (for the Linux version) their postings were certainly OK. Eric moderator from time to time.. /elecraft.com/ On 3/21/2018 4:47 PM,

Re: [Elecraft] KX3 Utility Segmentation Fault in Linux

Hi, Can you please move this conversation to a Linux guru forum? Ths Linux gobbledygook has no place here, period. AB2TC - Knut Just wanted to post a quick update. Since this problem started happening on 1 Mar 2018, I searched the archives and found the previous version of lib32-harfbuzz.

Re: [Elecraft] KX3 Utility Segmentation Fault in Linux

Just wanted to post a quick update. Since this problem started happening on 1 Mar 2018, I searched the archives and found the previous version of lib32-harfbuzz. After installing that version of the package, now all the Elecraft linux utilities are working again on my system.

Re: [Elecraft] KX3 Utility Segmentation Fault in Linux

That is much more serious than a warning. I'd expect it to be immediately followed by a crash with signal 3 (abort), rather than signal 11 (segmentation fault). However, if this isn't the standard assert routine, I would expect any attempt to actually use hash_table to produce a segmentation

Re: [Elecraft] KX3 Utility Segmentation Fault in Linux

Hi Rob, When I tried to start one of the utility programs today I got an error: (k3util:2054): GLib-CRITICAL **: g_hash_table_insert_internal: assertion 'hash_table != NULL' failed I think this is just a warning but it was followed by a segfault... All my Elecraft utility programs were affected

Hi Rob, >From the Utility info on the web site: X86-based Linux: GTK+ 2.8 or later, glibc-2.4, libstdc++.so.6 and cURL. 64-bit Linux requires 32-bit compatibility libraries. If you do a search of the reflector archives you should be able to find a list of the 32 bit libraries needed:

Re: [Elecraft] KX3 Utility Segmentation Fault in Linux

Whoa, a Linux question? Excellent. Looks the HarfBuzz shared libraries got updated (probably along with your window manager of choice) and the kx3util needs to be rebuilt (relinked? Not certain of the proper dev-speak here) to reference the newer libraries. (Sorry if I'm preaching to the

[Elecraft] KX3 Utility Segmentation Fault in Linux

Hi, Seems like there is a problem with the KX3 Utility running with the newer linux kernels... After updating I just started getting the following error immediately after running: Segmentation fault (core dumped) I've never had a problem before with the KX3 utility so not sure what is
