FCEUX / Bugs / #480 Segfault around 10-20 seconds with OpenGL disabled

Lukas Sabota - 2012-03-10

The comment below and the original bug seem to be two different issues. I will refer to the original bug of a segfault occuring when OpenGL is disable.

Can you please provide a strace / gdb backtrace so we can further diagnose your issue?

What video drivers are you using your machine? (as well as what versions?)

I have not been able to reproduce this on any on my ubuntu vms -- this sounds like a potential driver issue to me. Any additional detail you can provide would be greatly appreciated.

I ran fceux through both strace and gdb, and was not able to reproduce the segfault under those conditions. I have no idea why running either program would prevent a segfault, as I've never used them until today, so if there's an option I should try that you think would have effect, just let me know what that is.

I am using the official NVIDIA driver 280.13 on a 64-bit system, graphics card is a GeForce 9600 GT.

Can you please provide what operating system you are reproducing this bug on? I am unable to reproduce this issue. Please also include whether you are able to run ROMs without crashing with OpenGL disabled. Any additional information about the video driver you are using will be of assistance in helping us diagnose this issue.

I'm unable to reproduce this issue on Arch Linux 64bit with nvidia 280.13

+I am running Kubuntu 11.10 as my OS, and have had this crash happen both with the version 2.1.5 in the repos, and when compiling a recent (as in one week ago) revision of 2.1.6 from source.
+
+If I start fceux with \"Enable OpenGL\" unchecked in the settings, it will crash sometime between 10 and 20 seconds, regardless of whether or not a ROM is loaded in that timeframe. This does not happen at all when that option is checked, but alas, choosing a \"special scaler\" while OpenGL is enabled prevents ROMs from loading at all.
+
+sdl version is 1.2.14, gtk is 2.24.10

This sounds like an issue with your video card drviers. Try updating to the most recent version of your video card drivers.

Unable to reproduce; closing.
