(On systemd) try: coredumpctl -1 gdb (gdb) bt to generate a stack backtrace. Xorg.0.log may also help. It's a SIGABRT (not SIGSEGV) so some information causing the crash may be logged. -- Xi Ruoyao <[email protected]> School of Aerospace Science and Technology, Xidian University -- http://lists.linuxfromscratch.org/listinfo/blfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
