install gdb and darktable-debuginfo and probably: gsettings-backend-dconf-debuginfo gconf2-debuginfo dbus-1-glib-debuginfo or whatever gdb requests open an xterm instance run: gdb darktable from the gdb prompt "(gdb)" (gdb) r this will start darktable and product output for dt devs to use to solve your problem. after dt crashes, from the gdb prompt: (gdb) set pagination off (gdb) set logging file gdb.txt (gdb) set logging on (gdb) thread apply all bt full close gdb, (gdb) q put ~/gdb.txt and /tmp/darktable-bt**** somewhere accessable by dt devs and notify them of conditions and files I suggest joining irc #darktable where they gather. They have helped me with similar problems and are very willing and helpful in solving problems. (and prompt). I believe you said you were running openSUSE 13.1, I run Tw, but I use darix' builds. For 13.1 you would use: http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/darix:/darktable:/master/openSUSE_13.1/x86_64/ gud luk, -- (paka)Patrick Shanahan Plainfield, Indiana, USA @ptilopteri http://en.opensuse.org openSUSE Community Member facebook/ptilopteri http://wahoo.no-ip.org Photo Album: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/gallery2 Registered Linux User #207535 @ http://linuxcounter.net ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ Darktable-users mailing list Darktable-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/darktable-users
