Any news? Do you think you will need me for future testing or can I delete the bugged vmware image? And how are things going? Have you solved the problem? Cheers A.

Hi. disassemble.txt does contain the output from "disassemble $pc +32,$pc-32" Instead "disassemble $pc+32 $pc-32" produces no output: Dump of assembler code from 0xb76ce853 to 0xb76ce813: End of assembler dump.

What I wanted was the output from disassemble $pc+32,$pc-32 That will make it a lot less cumbersome to determine what the problem is. You should also send that output inline and not attach small text files to emails IMHO :) Cheers, Michael --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ To post to this group, send email to sage-support@googlegroups.com To unsubscribe from this group, send email to sage-support-unsubscr...@googlegroups.com For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/sage-support URLs: http://www.sagemath.org -~--~~~~--~~--~--~---

putty cannot connect to the address you say. I think it is normal if sage fails to start. I tried to use standard gdb logging to file, but I can't find gdb.txt I tried to set another file, but it seems it doesn't work (I used "set logging file mylog.txt") Any hints? I could ftp the log file to a server of mine and then download it from within winxp. On 3 Mag, 20:20, William Stein wrote: > > > VMware doesn't by default make this easy at all.

One thing you can do is use a standard windows ssh program (e.g., putty is a good free one), and ssh to the vmware machine. Use the login "login" and password "sage".

@William I've build sage as you said and it works. Great! @Michael I've installed gdb and followed your instruction, but I dunno how to copy the output. (I'm sorry for such a trivial question, but this is my first experience with a unix shell) And which address should I mail to what you need?

Absolutely :). I posted this in some other thread, but cannot find it at the moment. I do not believe gdb is installed as is in the VMWare image and since that version of Ubuntu is no longer supported it really ought to be updated and gdb installed per default. It won't make much of a difference size wise and for debugging problems like this is is rather helpful since otherwise we are otherwise poking around in the dark. Assuming you have gdb run ./sage -gdb It should fail due to illegal instruction and drop you to the gdb prompt: (gdb) Then punch in "bt" (no quotes) and you will see a backtrace. This might exceed the length of the screen, so there might be another prompt to continue. Copy and paste the backtrace (I assume only the first 20 lines will be of interest, but to be safe take the whole first page). Then hit enter until you get a prompt again. enter "disassemble $pc+32,$pc-32" at the gdb prompt and copy and paste the output. Mail all of the above to the list and we will fix the problem :) Cheers, Michael --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ To post to this group, send email to sage-support@googlegroups.com To unsubscribe from this group, send email to sage-support-unsubscr...@googlegroups.com For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/sage-support URLs: http://www.sagemath.org -~--~~~~--~~--~--~---
