Try running with -dbg init on the working installation. What's the next line?

"Adding minibuffer at position 0 0" is the last line on the working installation.

OK, well, try comparing with -dbg any.

What I DON'T want to have to tell you is to compile with debugging symbols and run under gdb.

Even without debugging turned on one usually gets a stack trace.
Less information, but sometimes helpful nevertheless.

I started gdb this morning with the old lyx 1.4.5.1 using qt3 which was crashing yesterday. I got this:

Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
[Switching to Thread -1222891824 (LWP 15322)]
0xb7acd4b0 in QDesktopWidgetPrivate::init ()
---Type <return> to continue, or q <return> to quit---
  from /usr/lib/qt-3.3.8/lib/libqt-mt.so.3
(gdb)

As the same lyx version was running perfectly on the laptop with the same underlying software, I came to the conclusion that the only difference in software between the laptop and the desktop was... X. I had stability problems during the slackware 12 install with the old slack 10 xorg.conf, so I changed the video driver from proprietary ati "fglrx" to the "vesa" driver. It has since worked perfectly until I tried to install lyx which might be the only software I use which in turn uses Qt. No matter which Qt version, there seems to be a bug between the Xorg "vesa" driver and Qt. I reconfigured X with the Xorg "radeon" driver and lyx greeting window finally appeared on the screen.

Thanks to all
