Try to start it from a shell to see if it gives any more indication of what is wrong. Otherwise start it using gdb to see if you can get a backtrace of the crash. You might also want to comment on this bug: https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=82154 > If I run the f4l command as root, i get the same thing with a bit more > info: > Session management error: Authentication Rejected, reason : None of the > authentication protocols specified are supported and host-based > authentication failed > Segmentation fault This provides you with more info, but not regarding the bug. It tells you that root can't access your X session because that X session is used by another user (you as non-root). > Does anybody know what I should do? Given that f4l is not officially supported you can check with the people providing the ebuild in sunrise, or check with upstream, but unless you can provide some more info on the segmentation fault it will be hard to diagnose the problem.
