[Visualpython-users] Segmentation fault on Ubuntu 10.04 (64 bit).

[Venkat R. <ven...@gm...>]

Hi all,

Last week I updated my ubuntu to 10.04 64 bit. I then installed vpython from
default ubuntu repositories.

But even a minimal vpython program gives a segfault.

$ python
Python 2.6.5 (r265:79063, Apr 16 2010, 13:57:41)
[GCC 4.4.3] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> from visual import *
>>> sphere()
Segmentation fault

I remember for the last Ubuntu (9.10), I had to update the boost library to
get it working. Does the same problem exist under 10.04?

I'm using Nvidia binary drivers. glxgears works fine. I'd be grateful for
any hints to make it work again.

>>> import visual
>>> visual.version
('5.12', 'release')

Thanks,
Venkat.
