Could you describe the exact steps to reproduce it? start off with a new .zshrc, run autoload -U compinstall, add ^^ to it, if it isn't there already, then login with that file in place. make sure you rm ~/.zcompdump; then, comment it out, rm .zcompdump again, then you'll note when you do something like: dpkg -tab zsh it won't SEGV. whereas when you *do* have it uncommented, and rm'd .zcompdump, and do the exact same command, it crashes (was testing with both a sub-shell [zsh -l] and a real login shell). -- http://www.nuit.ca/ http://home.earthlink.net/~wodensharrow/hah.html ,''`. http://www.debian.org/ http://simonraven.nuit.ca/ http://www.antiracistaction.ca/ : :' : Debian GNU/Linux http://pentangle.nuit.ca/ezine/vol_x/x0305.html' `- pgp0tmGk3NcjV.pgp Description: PGP signature

Lacking that information, I assume you see this segfault every time you start gcfclient. Unfortunately (or fortunately, depending on your POV) I don't see anything out of ordinary happen when I start gcfclient myself. Moreover, gcfclient itself does no IPC, those are all happening within GTK+. I'm afraid the included strace output doesn't point to any easily discernible location in gcfclient proper. I'd ask for a gdb stack trace but that's not that useful with stripped binaries. Could you compile gcfclient from source with -g and see if you'd still see this bug? sure. ASAP.

So it would seem that the yeh, true, but better to avoid that, if at all possible. only thing keeping it out of the Debian/PPC distribution is the Debian Freeness guidelines. I respect the guidelines, and wouldn't want to go against them, but it seems a shame that we can't find a practical solution to this. there's a good reason for that, foresight. i mean, i'd rather know this thing won't would patent encumbered the way we don't like it, and get fucked over. Would it be possible to have an otherwise fully functioning boot floppy image minus the non-free part? Then someone, while disclaiming all connection with Debian except as an interested observer, could put the non-free part on a website somewhere with instructions for combining the two into a functioning boot floppy? sounds interesting, then we can start doing that with the reverse engineered one, for testing :). making it modular would be neat, and also useful. Rick only trivial if you happen to have the necessary coding and de-coding skills and the necessary background in calling Apple's OF boot-rom routines. People with those skills are few and far between. And acquiring them from scratch for this project is i think several of the kernel hackers know a bit about this ;). definitely non-trivial. That's why I didn't volunteer. I don't have the skills and I don't have the time to acquire them. i personally am aware of this, this is why i talk of it freely, because i would like to stir up interest, frankly. Maybe we should establish a bounty for someone to reverse-engineer the Apple floppy boot block. That might get somebody with the necessary skills to come out of the woodwork... If ten of us put up US$100, would that be enough? see my previous to sven about a potential person, and maybe a bounty would be nice for this. there are many older macs that work just fine and have no DRM encumbrance but with a little TLC would work really nice. h/w hacking them can come from the work we (we as community) do, but i have the awareness that's a medium-term goal. probably a few years. 1) year for decode/encode reverse engineering, 2) replace the rom on a box, like a 7300-7500 on up, with a right-sized eeprom (3 MB IIRC) (no idea, never done such a thing, but someone with the skills probably a few / several weeks of planning and tweaking, then first burn so to speak 3) we can potentially play with a sacrificial scsi card, that has FCode on it, and replace it with one that has the right code in the rom so newworlds can boot from it. (adaptec 2940) oh, the ideas... but yeh, there's a few things we can do. rushing before a release isn't a hot idea, and it's certainly medium if not long term. simon -- | http://www.antiracistaction.ca/ | | http://pentangle.nuit.ca/ezine/vol_x/x0305.html | | http://home.earthlink.net/~wodensharrow/hah.html | pgptbTylmwwbE.pgp Description: PGP signature

Rick PS: Sven makes it sound as if reverse engineering the boot block is a trivial bit of work. That's not entirely true. It's only trivial if Well, we alreadsy know it is some 100 or so m68k assembly lines, and those are mostly trap calls to the apple rom. So, what is needed is : someone to take the bootblock and extract the code part from the bootblock. The format of the bootblock is described on some apple page. someone who dissasembles those assembly lines. someone who then mapps the trap calls to apple rom calls. Once that is done, we need to write a specification of what is supposed to happen to make it work, not mentioning the real code or what rom calls are made. Then once zwe have that, someone fully not incvolved with the above can do the reimplementing part : take the specification and rewrite said code. ok, sounds potentially hard, but fun too. Also, we need a compiler that is able to generate apple m68k code and thus able to compile miboot, altough i have a version of codewarrior 4 or whatever it was CD, which is needed to build miboot. gcc can't do it? oh, yeh, apple code Now, it has been rumored that a boot code containing only the (free) non-code part would be able to boot. Nobody tried though. gimme sources of this thing (URIs etc.), and i'll put up something on my site (which i can try out too :).

Bug#323182: debian-installer: boot.img for sarge doesn't, on PPC
Le lun 2005-08-15 a 12:25:57 -0400, Geert Stappers [EMAIL PROTECTED] a dit: I have seen reports of succesfull installs on PowerPC hardware on the debian-boot mailinglist. I have not clear how they boot. It could be a Mac OS boot CD-ROM and some bootstrap. Please report your progress on the rescue of PowerPC hardware. Cheers Geert Stappers [1] We includes you, that is how a community works 8^) yes, i know ;). when i had last used them in any way, they worked. between then and recently - i have heard of others who've not had any luck getting them to boot either - they borked. i don't know what happened between then and more recently. as to my recovery, i used 'System Disk', a flashed adaptec 2940UW SCSI PCI card, and a 68 pin scsi drive with mock os on it, and setting the NVRAM so i could boot to the second machine. i set boot-command so that it would find the root= device, e.g., done in linux, not from 'System Disk', though it's very doable: 'nvsetenv boot-command boot Linux single root=/dev/sdc2' (anything after 'Linux' is the kernel boot args passed to quik then to the kernel). then i was able to fix my boo-boo on the first machine. -- Software Patents are patently wrong: http://swpat.ffii.org/papiere/eubsa-swpat0202/ustr0309/index.en.html pgpPS9TCpoFeE.pgp Description: PGP signature

I am closing this bug as it is a duplicate of bug #229308 (see http://bugs.debian.org/229308). This is an issue with JFS filesystems on Linux that need to be explicitly configured for UTF-8; the error Invalid Argument is not a valid POSIX / Unix error message in this context, and the failure is in the filesystem. oh i see. ok, thank you for that. i'll fix that up then. ec/ This has been submitted to the JFS team before.

Which file system is this on? XFS and NTFS filesystems may be configured so that they use preset character sets (e.g. ISO-8859-1).
