#17 Adding photo(s) to an album crashes gpixpod
I downloaded gpixpod_05.2-1_all.deb to my Debian SID
system (Kanotix distro, KDE desktop), installed it with
apt and started the application.
I was able to define an album with gpixpod. Then I
wanted to add some photos to this album, but gpixpod
crashes just after clicking on the button "add photo(s)".
Photo database (and backup) have been created by
gpixpod, also a directory named "Thumbs" and a file
"ConvertedThumbs".

Please may you copy & paste also the command line output?
Try also the new 0.6.0 version to check whether it hopefully
already works.
Thank you

Organize photos on your iPod,
freely!
I will install and check the new version and report the result.

Please try launching from menu icon or launch the command
"python2.4 /usr/lib/gpixpod/gpixpod.py"

Thanks for the quick reply!
Result is the same, application crashes. But the command
line result looks different:
wolfgang@Cork:~$ python2.4 /usr/lib/gpixpod/gpixpod.py
iPod HAL autodetection disabled
Speicherzugriffsfehler
wolfgang@Cork:~$

I have the same problem... running from the command line I
get a segmentation fault.

It's possible that this bug was caused by HAL autodetection
not completely disabled. Thus please upgrade to the latest
GPixPod version (0.6.2) which disables it completely, and
please let me know if this bug shows up again.
Thank you

I will give it try when I'm back home in two weeks.

Hi,
may you please try the current SVN tree, because I made some
modifications on the C code.
`svn checkout
https://svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/gpixpod/trunk gpixpod-cvs`
Thank you

Hello,
is there a desription available what I have to do
to use an SVN tree and to build an application
from this source? I'm not familiar with this type
of source code confirguration system and
procedures (a lot of things have changed since I
compiled my own Fortran programs).
Thank you

You just need to install the "svn" tool
(http://subversion.tigris.org) using for example "apt-get
install subversion" command in Debian/Ubuntu GNU/Linux based
distributions.
Then you should launch the commands "svn checkout
https://svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/gpixpod/trunk
gpixpod-cvs" to get the code tree, and "svn update" inside
the created "gpixpod-cvs" directory whenever you want to
check/update to the latest revision.
To get gpixpod working from that code tree you need only to
launch "make all" inside the imgconvert directory (you need
python 2.4+, pygtk and gtk 2.8+ headers: launch "apt-get
install python-all-dev libgtk2.0-dev") to compile the C
imgconvert python extension, then just launch ./gpixpod.py
from the parent directory.

Thanks a lot for the help.
I followed your instructions and everything went ok,
including the "make all" command. Trying to execute
gpixpod.py gives the following result:
wolfgang@Cork:~/gpixpod/gpixpod-cvs$ gpixpod.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "./gpixpod.py", line 19, in ?
import gtk, gtk.glade, sys, os, gobject, cPickle,
webbrowser, re, locale, gettext, signal, copy
ImportError: No module named glade
It seems, that a module gtk.glade is missing. Where can I
get this module from? Is apt-get install glade the right way?

You need to apt-get install python-glade2

I installed python-glade. And it (the version 79 installed from SVN) worked ... I am
now able to add photos to an existing album.
A second try wasn't this succesful. I tried to create a new album and to add photos.
While selecting the photos, CPU load increased and the system got very slow. After
about one or two minutes gpixpod.py died (the wording in the terminal window
was "getötet" which means killed.
Nevertheless, hank you very much for your help, and also for this nice application!
I'll keep you informed about my further experience with gpixpod.
Greetings

I've opened a new bug report for the problem with CPU load and memory usage. The
initial problem (see headline) is solved with version 79 from SVN tree and this bug
report could be closed.
