Hello Ramiro,

I have been trying to run Linrad under gdb and valgrind but any of them 
allows it. I cant run Linrad within them.


This seems odd, I thought that an X11 installation would
always look the same to an application (like valgrind).
Can you install valgrind without errors?


Hello Leif,

I use valgrind stardard Debian sarge package, so there is no problem in 
installing it.




I have no idea what this means. Maybe you could install
the lastest one, svgalib-1.9.24. If you do, and if you 
do not remove the old /etc/vga/libvga.config you will

have to edit the file manually to add a line NoHelper
to avoid having to install svgalib_helper.


I am going to try it now.






What can I do to run Linrad under the debuggers?


Hopefully someone else can answer this:-)


No one answered that :-(

73, Ramiro.

Hello again!

I have just compiled svgalib 1.9.24 and linrad works great using 
NO_HELPER mode! No crashes, it works just fine.


Can we conclude it was a svgalib bug?

I think so. But one can never be 100% sure. There could be
a bug in Linrad that 1.9.24 is not bothered about.

On the other hand, 1.4.3 is old now and your laptop was 
probably not so old when 1.4.3 was finished so it might
not be so well debugged for the new hardware.

Another thing is that 1.9.24 could be very much faster
and therefore a bug inside Linrad might not happen
in the time window where it would bother svgalib.

For the moment I will act as if I were 100% sure it was 
a svgalib bug:-)

I have not been able to reproduce. I have tried Sarge

is that I can not read all the bits from the Delta44

Fine Leif. I can reproduce the segfault every time try it.
I think I could debug it fine because it crashes with consistence.

I am at work know, I will try to do the debugging when I arrive at
home and tell you the results.


 It is obvious that you have detected a bug. Maybe
 you can use a debugger to get some info about it?
 It could be an error in the Linrad code that might
 lead to various problems in the future so I am
 very interested to know. It could also be a bug
 inside svgalib or ALSA that cause an interrupt-related
 problem.


Ok Leif, we will keep in touch!
